Florida's Uplands: High Pine, Scrub, Prairies, Hardwood Forests and Dunes

  • Florida's Natural Ecosystems and Native Species: Volume 1

Authors: Ellie Whitney, D. Bruce Means, Anne Rudloe

The former 2004 Priceless Florida book, which is no longer in print and has been updated, modified and divided into three stand-alone yet complimentary volumes--Florida's Uplands, Florida's Wetlands and Florida's Waters.  

Wonderful resource for FMNP students and graduates interested in learning about natural Florida and its ecology, upland habitats, habitat integrity, species diversity, flora and fauna.

This volume discusses the well-drained areas of Florida, including high pine grasslands, flatwoods and prairies, interior scrub, hardwood hammocks, rocklands and caves, and beach dunes.

A concise and heavily illustrated introduction to the ecosystems that cover most of the state, as well as the native species found there.
