Resources

The Resources section of our website is a library of all the reports and informational brochures produced by the Nova Scotia Nature Trust.

Our most requested general interest brochures are:

The Nova Scotia Nature Trust has compiled a "Guide to the Atlantic Coastal Plain Flora of Nova Scotia". Coastal Plain plants are one of the most endangered plant groups in Canada. Of the sixty-four species, eleven are extremely rare and listed as either nationally endangered, threatened or of special concern by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada, and are found in Canada only in Nova Scotia. Five species are considered to be globally threatened, and twenty-five are listed as at risk or sensitive by the Nova Scotia government. The Guide includes descriptions and images of 30 species of this unique group of flowering plants. Visit our a Plants on the Edge page for more information and links about one of our most endangered plant groups in Canada. The Guide is available as a digital file in PDF format. Watch for a revised edition in 2007!
