The NM Endangered Plants Program is the state entity responsible for managing the state endangered plant list, permitting take of state endangered plants, as well as coordinating rare plant conservation efforts throughout the Land of Enchantment. In this talk, Marty will give an overview of the NM Endangered Plants Program, provide a summary of the status of rare plants in NM, and discuss recent fieldwork conducted by the Endangered Plants Program on some of NM’s rarest plant species highlighting areas where additional research is needed.</span><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#757575"></span></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt"><div align="center"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background:#285513;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td style="padding:13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt;border-radius:3px"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif"><a href="https://calbotsoc.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c632809fa2b75323f2418bb1e&id=b049d0f589&e=b69ac08598" target="_blank" title="Information and Zoom Link"><b><span style="color:white;letter-spacing:-.4pt;text-decoration:none">Information and Zoom Link</span></b></a> </span></p></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:6.75pt 6.75pt 6.75pt 6.75pt"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 6.75pt 0in 6.75pt;min-width:100%;float:left"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><img border="0" width="564" id="_x0000_i1026" src="https://mcusercontent.com/c632809fa2b75323f2418bb1e/images/b7de2632-54ba-2e88-e82e-74ad10dce355.png"></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:6.75pt 0in 0in 0in"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td width="600" valign="top" style="width:6.25in;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in;max-width:100%;min-width:100%;float:left"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;word-break:break-word"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 13.5pt 6.75pt 13.5pt"><h3 align="center" style="text-align:center"><strong><span style="font-size:11.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Lucida Sans Unicode",sans-serif;color:black">BIO</span></strong></h3><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;line-height:125%"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:125%;font-family:"Lucida Sans Unicode",sans-serif;color:black">Martin (Marty) Purdy is the Assistant State Botanist with the New Mexico Forestry Division. His work is largely focused on conserving New Mexico’s 46 federally and state listed plants, and performing associated research, monitoring, and survey efforts on those taxa. He has a BA in Environmental Studies and a BS in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from UC Santa Cruz (2013), and an MS in Botany from California Botanic Garden and Claremont Graduate University (2022). Prior to moving to New Mexico in 2022, Marty worked for the Inyo National Forest and completed a floristic inventory of Coyote Ridge and Flat (Inyo County, CA) for his MS thesis. Before that he worked a wide variety of seasonal botany and natural resource positions for universities and federal agencies ranging from plant conservation on San Clemente Island to trail work in the Klamath Mountains. In his free time, he is an avid iNaturalist contributor, horror movie consumer, and corduroy appreciator.</span><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#757575"></span></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:100%"><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0in 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt"><div align="center"><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background:#285513;border-collapse:collapse"><tr><td style="padding:13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt 13.5pt;border-radius:3px"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif"><a href="https://calbotsoc.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c632809fa2b75323f2418bb1e&id=093e8350e8&e=b69ac08598" target="_blank" title="JOIN US THURSDAY @ 7PM!
