The Los Amigos Biological Station sits on a high bluff between the Madre de Dios and Los Amigos rivers. The land around the station includes secondary disturbed forest, Mauritia palm swamp, frequently-inundated lowland forest, creek-dissected slope forest, and upland plateau primary forest. The five Gurania species in the Los Amigos area are found in several differing habitats.
