For those without formal education in botany, this book takes you through the complexes of different habitats created by differences in soils, elevation, rainfall, and then through the major families found in California and their adaptations to the different ecotypes. Like an Island called California, but more concise and less narrative. Does not include either the Mojave or Colorado Deserts. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
