Coxipi River

[2] The Dictionnaire des rivières et lacs de la province de Québec (1914) says of the Léandre River, Situated on the north coast of the Saint Lawrence, Saguenay County, 14 miles from Shecatica Bay, in the canton of Bougainville.

Its name comes from a fisherman called Léandre who exploited this river at its mouth for many years.

The river Léandre receives the waters of several beautiful lakes enclosed in mountains with a height of 100 or 200 feet.

[5] The Coxipi River basin covers 1,672 square kilometres (646 sq mi).

The river basin include part of the proposed Basses Collines du Lac Guernesé Biodiversity Reserve.

[9] A map of the ecological regions of Quebec shows the Coxipi River in sub-regions 6o-T, 6n-T and 6m-T of the east spruce/moss subdomain.

[1] Land mammals include black bear, moose, boreal woodland caribou, wolf, lynx, beaver, North American porcupine, mink, hare and red fox.
