Abstract
A Flora of the Higher Ranges and the Kelso Dunes of the Eastern Mojave Desert in California
Highlights
The isolated higher mountains in the desert, like islands in an ocean, hold a peculiar fascination for biologists, partly because of their well-defined limits and partly because of their considerable endemism
Their choice of the higher ranges of the eastern Mojave Desert in California was largely prompted by their knowledge that the ranges possess a relatively rich flora, containing many species from the Great Basin and southwestern deserts not otherwise reported for California
The authors have expanded the project to include additional ranges and the Kelso Dunes, and they have had great assistance from student groups at the University of California, Los Angeles and Santa Cruz, who have carried out their own resource surveys of the Granite Mountains and Kingston Range
