Distribution and Abundance (a) Geographic range: Oxycoccus macrocarpus is native to eastern North America (Macoun 1883) but cultivated in a few other countries. In Canada its range extends from Newfoundland to western Ontario (Figure 2). From its northernmost limit just north of Anticosti Island it extends southward to West Virginia and Tennessee (Ogle 1983) in the eastern United States and to Ohio, Illinois and Indiana in the midwest (Gleason 1952). Local distributions have been published for Newfoundland (Rouleau 1956), Nova Scotia (Roland and Smith 1969), Prince Edward Island (Erskine 1960), Gaspe (Scoggan 1950; Grandtner and Rousseau 1975) and.
