The accounts of the species are also most comprehensive but not needlessly complex. Altitudes from sea level to above timberline make California a particularly rich natural field laboratory for the scientist. Dr Ingles has taken full advantage of this wealth of varied habitat and presents complete list and description of all the species found in California.''
