NEPCoP is a prototype for a nationwide tier of similar regional programs that will bridge the gap separating national from state and local programs. The complete list was printed in July 1997 in Rhodora, the Journal of the New England Botanical Club. This comprehensive listing of regional endangered plants was the product of four years' work by NEPCoP, a voluntary collaboration of botanists and more than 68 public and private organizations. Initiated and administered by the New England Wild Flower Society, NEPCoP seeks to prevent the extirpation and promote the recovery of the rare and endangered flora of our region. In order to focus conservation activities on the species in greatest need, NEPCoP developed an extensive list of more than 500 plants that are of conservation concern the Flora Conservanda.
