The New Mexico Rare Plant Strategy is focused on the 235 rare and endangered plant species in New Mexico (the Strategy Species), including 109 species that only occur in New Mexico and nowhere else in the world. The Strategy Species include 13 federally listed species, 37 species listed as Endangered in the State of New Mexico, 15 species listed on the Navajo Nation Endangered Species List, 36 species listed as sensitive by the BLM, and 64 species listed as sensitive by the Forest Service.

The List includes plants ranked Critically Imperiled, Imperiled, or Vulnerable by the New Mexico Natural Heritage Program, USFWS listed species, BLM and Forest Service Sensitive Species or Species of Concern, State Listed Endangered Species, Navajo Nation Endangered Species, and otherwise rare and endemic species, including those historically considered rare by the NMRPTC.
