Provinces are based on floristic regions, soil/plant relationships, Bailey's ecoregions and climate. Purpose: To graphically illustrate the ecological provinces in the Southern Great Basin for the Conservation Assessment for Greater Sage-grouse and Sagebrush Habitats (Connelly, et al. 2004) Supplemental_Information: Figure was adapted from West et al. 1998 and Miller et al. 1999.
