Description
Summary:Lists 107 vascular plants with brief notes on characteristic habitats. The principal habitiats in a 25 sq mi area are described (map) and the ecological factors analyzed, with June-Aug temperature graph. The general aridity of the area is emphasized, the relative biotic richness being due to favorable summer temperatures, low wind velocity and absence of stratus cloud. Flowering dates for 14 species are tabulated.
