Buddleja jamesonii is a species endemic to southern Ecuador, where it grows in moist, protected ravines and borders of tussocks at elevations of 3,000 – 4,000 m.[2] The species, first named and described by Bentham in 1846,[3] is now threatened by habitat loss. The specific name commemorates the Scottish botanist William Jameson (1796–1873) who collected in Ecuador.[4]
