A compact field-oriented guide to California’s common ferns

Focused on identification and foundational botany, this volume catalogs eighty-six fern species commonly found in California. Alongside individual species accounts, it introduces the life cycle of a typical fern and provides a key to fern families, giving the book a practical reference structure. A glossary helps clarify botanical terminology, while suggested references point toward further study. Originally published in 1966 and reissued through UC Press’s Voices Revived program, it presents a concise regional resource centered on fern diversity rather than a broad survey of plant life.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • California naturalists seeking a fern reference
  • Botany students learning fern life cycles and family identification
  • Plant enthusiasts who use species accounts and glossaries
