I found patches of these bunchberries all over the Mingan islands. They're one of over 450 species of vascular plants, 190 species of lichen, and 300 types of moss found in the Mingan Archipelago. Many of these aren't found anywhere else in the region. The North shore is home to only 380 species of vascular plants, compared to the Archipelago's 450, despite covering an area approximately 2000x larger.
