Distribution areas of terrestrial mammals, reptiles, reptiles, amphibians, and freshwater fish

Distribution areas of terrestrial mammals, reptiles, reptiles, amphibians, and freshwater fish The data represent the distribution of species of amphibians, reptiles, reptiles, terrestrial mammals and freshwater and migratory fish in Quebec. The files represent: amphibians: 21 reptile species: 17 species terrestrial mammals: 17 species terrestrial mammals: 69 species freshwater and migratory fish species: 118 species The ranges were established on the basis of various sources of information and validated by the Main Directorate of Expertise on Terrestrial Wildlife (DPEFT), the Main Directorate for Threatened or Vulnerable Species (DPEFT), the Main Directorate of Threatened or Vulnerable Species (DPEMV) and the Main Directorate of Expertise on Aquatic Wildlife (DPEFA) of the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (MELCCFP). The ranges of species of _freshwater and migratory fish_ are also illustrated in the [“Freshwater Fish of Quebec”] poster (https://cdn-contenu.quebec.ca/cdn-contenu/faune/documents/animaux/affiche-poissons-eau-douce.pdf). Some ranges have changed slightly since they were included in the poster. __There may be differences between the ranges of the species presented in the files and the current spatial distribution of the species.__ The ranges were produced on a small scale, they provide indicative information on the presence of the species in Quebec. The cards are the property of MELCCFP. __Atten:__ The ranges of marine mammals that frequent the coasts of the province of Quebec are not included in this dataset.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).** 2025-03-05 Government and Municipalities of Québec services.clientele@mffp.gouv.qc.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and Technology Amphibian distribution areas in GeodatabaseFGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Amphibien/GDB/Aires_repartition_amphibiens_GDB.zip Distribution areas of terrestrial mammals in GeodatabaseFGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Mammifere_Terrestre/GDB/Aires_repartition_MT_GDB.zip Reptile distribution areas in GeodatabaseFGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Reptile/GDB/Aires_repartition_reptiles_GDB.zip Distribution areas of freshwater fish in GeodatabaseFGDB/GDB https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Poisson/GDB/Aires_repartition_poisson_eau_douce_GDB.zip Amphibian ranges in GeoJSONGEOJSON https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Amphibien/GEOJSON/Aires_repartition_amphibiens.geojson Terrestrial mammal ranges in GeoJSONGEOJSON https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Mammifere_terrestre/GEOJSON/Aires_repartition_MT.geojson Reptile ranges in GeoJSONGEOJSON https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Reptile/GEOJSON/Aires_repartition_reptiles.geojson Distribution areas of freshwater fish in GeoJSONGEOJSON https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Poisson/GEOJSON/Aires_repartition_poisson_eau_douce.geojson Amphibian ranges in GeoPackageGPKG https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Amphibien/GPKG/Aires_repartition_amphibiens.gpkg Distribution areas of terrestrial mammals in GeoPackageGPKG https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Mammifere_Terrestre/GPKG/Aires_repartition_MT.gpkg Reptile distribution areas in GeoPackageGPKG https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Reptile/GPKG/Aires_repartition_reptiles.gpkg Distribution areas of freshwater fish in GeoPackageGPKG https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Poisson/GPKG/Aires_repartition_poisson_eau_douce.gpkg Original metadata (https://www.donneesquebec.ca)HTML https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/65974d4e-d887-406b-a2f9-58000c4d3401 Amphibian ranges in ShapefileSHP https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Amphibien/SHP/Aires_repartition_amphibiens_SHP.zip Range of terrestrial mammals in ShapefileSHP https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Mammifere_Terrestre//SHP/Aires_repartition_MT_SHP.zip Reptile ranges in ShapefileSHP https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Reptile/SHP/Aires_repartition_reptiles_SHP.zip Freshwater fish distribution areas in ShapefileSHP https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Poisson/SHP/Aires_repartition_poisson_eau_douce_SHP.zip Amphibian ranges in SQLiteSQLITE https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Amphibien/SQLite/Aires_repartition_amphibiens.sqlite Range of terrestrial mammals in SQLiteSQLITE https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Mammifere_Terrestre/SQLite/Aires_repartition_MT.sqlite Reptile ranges in SQLiteSQLITE https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Reptile/SQLite/Aires_repartition_reptiles.sqlite Distribution areas of freshwater fish in SQLiteSQLITE https://diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca/Diffusion/DonneeGratuite/Faune/Aires_repartition/Poisson/SQLite/Aires_repartition_poisson_eau_douce.sqlite
