The atlas describes and illustrates 500 wild plant species(including some subspecies and varieties) in 231 genera and 49 families. The plants include common components of major plant communiyies across rangeland regions of Northern China, but certain endemic species, as well as rare and endangered species also are described. The description of each plant includes morphological characters, flowering time, geographical distribution, habitat and practical uses in both Chinese and English languages, with one to three color photos. The atlas is expected to be helpful to technical specialists studying and working on rangeland and other related scientific fields, as well as to those with a genaral non-technical interest in Chinese rangelands.
