Cependant, les données sur leur répartition spatiale et temporelle sont souvent incomplètes, et on n'a presque pas étudié leur rôle véritable (nourriture, abri, milieu de vie et habitat de reproduction pour les autres espèces) en ce qui concerne le maintien des fonctions normalisatrices de la forêt, de la toundra, de la prairie et des milieux arides. Les additions à la flore du Canada sont généralement le fait d'espèces exotiques introduites ou de variantes géographiques d'espèces répandues.
