Question: Do both Nertera and some Agave grow in South America?
Context: Nothrotherium is an extinct genus of medium-sized ground sloth from South America (Bolivia, Brazil and the Ware Formation, La Guajira, Colombia).  It differs from "Nothrotheriops" in smaller size and differences in skull and hind leg bones, but both genera can be traced back to "Hapolops", the genus which both evolved from in different ecological conditions.  This genus formerly included the species "Nothrotheriops shastensis", which was later moved to "Nothrotheriops".  These browsing ground sloths consumed roots, stems, seeds, and leaves of various desert plants, such as the yucca and agave. Passiflora gibertii is a fast-growing ornamental vine with edible fruits.  The flowers are also ornamental.  The fast-growing vine can grow up to 27 feet long.  It has three-lobed (occasionally 5-lobed) leaves which can grow to a few inches long.  Vines may trail across arbors or climb trees or fences.  The plant is easily container-grown and will flower readily.  Flowering generally occurs in warm months.  Some fruits may follow, and the ripe fruits which are yellow to orange in color are edible, though some reports claim the unripe fruits are poisonous.  Its hardiness is to about 32 °F.  It grows in full sun or in part shade.  The vines need regular water, especially during the growing season.  Vines can be pruned if needed, as secondary shoots readily sprout.  Seeds benefit from presoaking and require warm temperatures of 75–85 °F for germination.  Germination time is erratic and often takes several weeks to a few months.  "P. gibertii" is not as commonly planted as some of the other Passifloras.  It is native to South America, from Argentina through Paraguay and Brazil. Morchella frustrata is a later synonym of Morchella tridentina, a species originally described by Giacomo Bresadola from north Italy in 1898.  It is a species of fungus in the family Morchellaceae referred to as the mountain blond or western blond morel in North America, but commonly found throughout the Mediterranean basin.  It has conical, grey to buff fruit bodies that grow up to 20 cm tall and 5 cm wide.  Recent molecular and morphological studies have also shown "Morchella frustrata" to be conspecific to M. quercus-ilicis, M. elatoides, M. elatoides var.  elegans and M. conica var.  pseudoeximia.  So far, this cosmopolitan species is known from California and Oregon in North America, from Argentina and Chile in South America, from Spain, France, Cyprus, Italy and Turkey in Europe, and has also been reported from Israel and India. Solanum robustum,the shrubby nightshade, is a thorny perennial shrub native to northeastern South America of the genus Solanum and is therefore related to the potato and tomato plants.  A medium shrub, the plant may grow 4 to 8 feet (1.2 - 2.4 m.) with velvety leaves and stems due to dense stellate trichomes present on all faces of the plant.  Strong, straight or recurved flattened prickles up to 12 millimeters long may be found along the stems.  The leaves grow 6 to 10 inches long and feature nine angled ridges along their perimeter.  S. robustum blooms between late spring and mid fall with small clusters of white to yellow-white star shaped inflorescence followed by white or yellowish marble sized berries.  S. robustum contains various tropane alkaloids in its leaves, fruit and stems and therefore should not be consumed. Nertera is a genus of about 15 species of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae, native to the Southern Hemisphere, in South America and Australasia, with one species extending into the Northern Hemisphere in Central America, eastern Asia, and Hawaii.  The name derives from the Greek word "nerteros", meaning low down.  Common names include pincushion, coral bead or bead plant.  They are prostrate, creeping, mat-forming herbaceous perennial plants growing to 20 - across or more but no more than a few centimetres high.  The leaves are usually quite small, and when crushed may in some species release a foul smell (methanethiol) like the related woody genus "Coprosma".  The flowers are insignificant and probably wind-pollinated.  The fruit is usually a bright orange berry, but in some species may be a dry capsule. Beilschmiedia is a genus of trees and shrubs in family Lauraceae.  Most of its species grow in tropical climates, but a few of them are native to temperate regions, and they are widespread in tropical Asia, Africa, Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand, North America, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America.  The best-known species to gardeners in temperate areas are "B. berteroana" and "B. miersii" because of their frost tolerance.  Seeds of "B. bancroftii" were used as a source of food by Australian Aborigines.  Timbers of some species are very valuable. Agave (US: , UK: , , Anglo-Hispanic: ) is a genus of monocots native to the hot and arid regions of Mexico and the Southwestern United States.  Some agave species are also native to tropical areas of South America.  The plants are perennial, but each rosette flowers once and then dies (see semelparity).  Some species are known by the name "century plant". Tillandsia is a genus of around 650 species of evergreen, perennial flowering plants in the family Bromeliaceae, native to the forests, mountains and deserts of Central and South America, the southern United States and the West Indies.  They have naturally been established in diverse environments such as equatorial tropical rain forests, high elevation Andes mountains, rock dwelling (saxicolous) regions, and Louisiana swamps, such as Spanish Moss ("T. usneoides"), a species that grows atop tree limbs.  Airplant is a common name for plants in this genus.  Most "Tillandsia" species are epiphytes – i.e. they normally grow without soil while attached to other plants.  Some are aerophytes or "air plants", which have no roots and grow on shifting desert soil.  Generally, the thinner-leafed varieties grow in rainy areas and the thick-leafed varieties in areas more subject to drought.  Most species absorb moisture and nutrients through the leaves from rain, dew, dust, decaying leaves and insect matter, aided by structures called trichomes. Pouteria caimito, the abiu (] ), is a tropical fruit tree originated in the Amazonian region of South America.  It will grow an average of 33 ft high, and can grow as high as 116 ft under good conditions.  Its fruits shape varies from round to oval with a point.  When ripe, it has smooth bright yellow skin and will have one to four ovate seeds.  The inside of the fruit is translucent and white.  It has a creamy and jelly-like texture and its taste is similar to the sapodilla — a sweet caramel custard.  The abiu tree is part of the Sapotaceae family and is very similar in appearance to the canistel. Agave americana, common names sentry plant, century plant, maguey or American aloe, is a species of flowering plant in the family Agavaceae, native to Mexico, and the United States in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas.  Today, it is cultivated worldwide as an ornamental plant.  It has become naturalized in many regions, including the West Indies, parts of South America, the southern Mediterranean Basin, and parts of Africa, India, China, Thailand, and Australia.
