The chapters on geography, geology, phytogeography, climate, cacti and endemism have considerably more information than the first printing; in addition there is a new chapter concerning coastal wetlands. Each illustrated plant has a description on the facing page assisting even the novice to identify the specimen.

Both vegetative and topographical maps are included on the inside covers; There are also four pages of descriptive drawings.
