Joshua Tree National Park is a designated World Biosphere Preserve, the only place in the world with the unique flora and fauna of the Mojave, Colorado and Sonoran deserts.
Joshua Tree ( Yucca brevifolia ) is visually dominant, resulting in the vegetation type being called Joshua tree woodland, but the species scores low on quantitative measures of dominance.
