    Marine Corps Air Station Miramar

    The habitat of the Willowy Monardella, an endangered mint species native to this area, is currently being destroyed by civilian encroachment into East Miramar. The air station contains 10 species protected by the Endangered Species Act. There are six plants, two birds and two species of fairy shrimp that are listed as threatened or endangered. Increased encroachment and vandalism to historical sites on East Miramar have led to increased random police patrols in the area.
