Federal-provincial program to inventory protected areas in southern Quebec : an extraordinary advance toward knowledge of the biodiversity around us / Environment and Climate Change Canada.: En154-95/2017E-PDF
“For many years, the federal government (Environment and Climate Change Canada) and the provincial government (Faune Québec) have shared common objectives with regard to acquiring knowledge about biodiversity and protecting species at risk. Given the complementarity of their objectives, the Canadian Wildlife Service of Environment and Climate Change Canada and Faune Québec shared their expertise and set up a wildlife and flora inventory program in protected areas in southern Quebec. Each has benefited from the other’s expertise to carry out this major project, to improve and to develop its capacities. Under this federal-provincial program, 24 areas covering a total of approximately 18,500 hectares were inventoried from 2004 to 2009. Some 553 species were identified, including 85 that are at risk. Nearly 24,000 observations were entered into various databases. The program has provided a wealth of information on our local biodiversity”--Provided by publisher.
