Endemic Species: Found Nowhere Else in the World


"Endemic species" are those that are UNIQUE to a defined geographic location - such as an island, a province, a nation, or some other defined zone; being found NOWHERE ELSE in the World.

Three vascular plant species are endemic to the "limestone barrens" of the Island of Newfoundland: Long's Braya (Braya longii), Fernald's Braya (Braya fernaldii), and Barrens Willow (Salix jejuna).
