Geological History and Quebec's Biodiversity
Biodiversity comprises all forms of life on Earth: mammals, reptiles,plants, insects, fungi, bacteria, algae — and humans as well. Species must constantly interact with one another simply to continue to exist. Our successful survival depends entirely on biological diversity and the resources that our planet provides. This exhibit about Quebec's Biodiversity increases awareness of and re-asserts respect for the province's natural environment.

Gloria Algae. Marine Algae of Quebec by Marcelle Gauvreau
Little (re)known naturalist and botanist Marcelle Gauvreau worked to advance science, particularly through her research on local algae, and to popularise it among young people. Inspired by the few existing algae herbaria around the world, this artistic and scientific project, a collaboration between photographer Yves Lavoie and museologist and researcher Philippe Denis, pays tribute to her.
