The ecogeographic formations of the Sierra San Pedro Martir, Baja California, Mexico at latitiude 31 °N. An ecogeographic formation is comprised of a topographic element (, western foothills, east scarp), a climatic element, and a vegetation association; from Welsh (1988). rule, sedentary species whose presence (or absence) closely reflects local environmental conditions over extended time. Under each bioregion described below, Kuchler's (1977) vegetation types are listed first under dominant and secondary vegetations; Mayer and Laudenslayer (1988) types are listed second and referred to as California wildlife habitat relationships (WHR) types. The following WHR types are common throughout the state: fresh emergent wetland, pasture, riverine, lacustrine, cropland, orchard, urban, and eucalyptus (see Mayer and Laudenslayer 1988 for details). For a crosswalk between Kuchler (1977), Mayer and Laudenslayer (1988), and other vegetation classification systems of California see Mayer and Laudenslayer (1988: Table 6). Climate descriptions are based on Kahrl (1971) and Barry (1991). Soil descriptions are from Bailey (1976). Common names of vertebrates follow Laudenslayer et al. (1991) and Stebbins (1985). The lists of resident vertebrates are intended to characterize the fauna of each bioregion and, with the exception of the reptiles and amphibians, were compiled after the boundaries were first determined using the method described above.
