Probably highly skewed to the right, with discrete values (perhaps due to the 
limitations in the accuracy of the assessment equipment).  But note:

Subject: [R] Interpreting Q-Q Plots

   My understanding of Q-Q plots is that if the tails of the plotted points 
fall above or below the x=y line the distribution of observed/measured values 
is under or over dispersed. But, how do I interpret measured values that are in 
horizontal lines? The attached plot illustrates this situation.

TIA,

Rich
