A, Celtis pdlida, the desert hackberry, because of its great importance for wildlife and the dense cover it 

 produces, should prove of outstanding value in planting for soil and wildlife conservation. B, Cercidium 

 torreyanum. The recorded value of the paloverde as food for wildlife is not great, but as cover for soil and 

 wildlife in arid regions its value is obvious. (Photograph by U. S. Forest Service.)
