The Mojave Desert displays typical basin and range topography, that is, generally having a pattern of a series of parallel mountain ranges and valleys. With these other factors, the extent of these plants generally serves to differentiate the Mojave from the nearby Sonoran desert. The Mojave Desert is distinguished from the Sonoran Desert and other deserts adjacent to it by its warm temperate climate, as well as flora and fauna such as ironwood ( Olneya tesota), blue Palo Verde ( Parkinsonia florida), chuparosa ( Justicia californica), spiny menodora ( Menodora spinescens), desert senna ( Cassia armata), California dalea ( Psorothamnus arborescens), and goldenhead ( Acamptopappus shockleyi). The Mojave Desert is bordered to the west by the Sierra Nevada mountain range and the California montane chaparral and woodlands, and to the south and east by the Sonoran Desert, although the boundaries to the east of the Mojave Desert are less distinctive than the other boundaries as there is no distinctive presence of an indicator species, such as the Joshua tree ( Yucca brevifolia), which is endemic to the Mojave Desert. Of these, the Mojave is the smallest and driest. ДЄlong with the Sonoran, Chihuahuan, and Great Basin deserts, a larger North American Desert is formed. The Joshua tree ( Yucca brevifolia) is endemic and exclusive to the Mojave Desert.
