2 BAJA CALIFORNIA ISLANDS FLORA & VERTEBRATE FAUNA BIBLIOGRAPHY Mary Frances Campana This annotated bibliography covers the published literature on the flora and vertebrate fauna of the islands surrounding the Baja California peninsula. While comprehensive, it cannot claim to be exhaustive; however, Biological Abstracts and Zoological Record were searched extensively, back to the beginning of those indexes. With few exceptions, the author has examined either the materials themselves or abstracts. The bibliography is annotated, not abstracted. The descriptor field lists the islands mentioned in the work, or the phrases "Gulf Islands" and "Pacific Islands". The bibliography does not include Guadalupe, Socorro, the Tres Marias or other outlying islands. It contains few references to pinniped populations, and none to fish, insects or invertebrates since it is limited to vertebrate species and the terrestrial habitat. It does not cover the Mexican or Latin American literature on the islands to any great degree. Last Updated: July, 1997 The reptiles of Western North America Van Denburgh, J.
