The Enigma of Serpentine Endemism,
By
This review is from: Serpentine Geoecology of Western North America: Geology, Soils, and Vegetation (Hardcover)
Kruckeberg's CALIFORNIA SERPENTINES was my first intro to CA's kooky serpentine habitats, especially those I've witnessed in my own region at Table Mountain, Coyote Ridge and New Idria. For an extended treatment of the soils, geology and domains of western North America's unique serpentine geoecology, I can recommend this work to plant ecologists, biogeographers, and soil scientists.
If you like checkerspot butterflies you'll appreciate the importance of protecting serpentine terrane for this species, a topic which is admirably covered here by one of the co-authors. For more on their biology, see Ehrlich's ON THE WINGS OF CHECKERSPOTS. Get a copy of SERPENTINE GEOECOLOGY for around $7 before they're gone. |
