The Little Sandy Desert, an interim Australian bioregion,〔(IBRA Version 6.1 ) data〕 is a desert located in Western Australia south of the Great Sandy Desert and west of the Gibson Desert. The bioregion is located to the east of Great Northern Highway south of Newman and approximately north of Wiluna. To the north the nearest large area identifiable is the Karlamilyi National Park. It is named because it is relatively close and similar to the Great Sandy Desert, but is much smaller. Its landforms, fauna and flora are all similar to the Great Sandy Desert. Both deserts are crossed by the Canning Stock Route. Indigenous groups that have identified with the region include the Mandilara.〔Hercock, Marion (2009) Born in the desert : the land and travels of a last Australian nomad with insights from Dadina Brown.
