Francisco Burgoa (b. Oaxaca, c.1600; d. Tepozotlán in 1681) was a historian of the Dominican Order in Mexico.
 He entered the Dominican Order on 2 August 1629, and soon became a master in theology.
 The voluminous books written by him on the past of his native Mexican province of Antequera, (now called Oaxaca), are very rare and valuable, though not absolutely reliable on several topics.
 Burgoa utilizes material on particular Dominicans from Agustín Dávila Padilla, but emphasizes their work in Oaxaca.
 Burgoa was curate of several Indian parishes and his knowledge of the native languages, the Zapotec and Mixtec, is stated to have been very thorough.
 In 1649 he became Provincial of the Province of San Hipólito and took part in the chapter general of his order in Rome in 1656.
 Returning to Mexico with the title of vicar-general, a member of the Spanish Inquisition, and Commissary and Inspector of Libraries of New Spain (Mexico), he again became Provincial of Oaxaca in 1662.
 He was interested in several ecclesiastical foundations and improvements, and was highly respected at the time of his death.
 The two historical and geographical works through which he is best known are the "Palestra histórica, ó Historia de la Provincia de San Hipólito de Oaxaca, de la Orden de Predicadores" (Mexico, 1670), and the "Descripción geográfica de la América setentrional" etc. (Mexico, 1674).
 He published a number of sermons and also wrote "Itinerario de Oaxaca á Roma y de Roma a Oaxaca".
José Guadalupe Gallegos (April 13, 1828 - May 18, 1867) was a native New Mexican military leader, county sheriff, rancher and politician.
 In 1854 he served as brigadier general in the volunteer Mounted Militia of New Mexico formed for the purpose of protecting communities against Native American attacks.
 Prior to the Battle of Glorieta Pass, he was field and staff Colonel in the Civil War and commander of the 3rd New Mexico Volunteer Infantry (NMVI) for the Union Army and commander Hatch's Ranch military post.
 He represented San Miguel County in the New Mexico Territorial Legislature and served both as House Speaker and as Council President.
 José was one of the founding members of the Historical Society of New Mexico and was a founding associate in the incorporation of the Montezuma Copper Mining Company Of Santa Fé, New Mexico the New Mexican Railway Company and the New Mexico Wool Manufacturing Company.
The Native American Church (NAC), also known as Peyotism and Peyote Religion, is a Native American religion that teaches a combination of traditional Native American beliefs and Christianity, with sacramental use of the entheogen peyote.
 The religion originated in the U.S. State of Oklahoma in the late nineteenth century after peyote was introduced to the southern Great Plains from Mexico.
 Today it is the most widespread indigenous religion among Native Americans in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with an estimated 250,000 adherents as of the late twentieth century.
This is a list of the native wild mammal species recorded in Mexico.
 As of September 2014, there were 536 mammalian species or subspecies listed.
 Based on IUCN data, Mexico has 23% more noncetacean mammal species than the U.S. and Canada combined in an area only 10% as large, or a species density over 12 times that of its northern neighbors.
 Mexico's high mammal biodiversity is in part a reflection of the wide array of biomes present over its latitudinal, climatic and altitudinal ranges, from lowland tropical rainforest to temperate desert to montane forest to alpine tundra.
 The general increase in terrestrial biodiversity moving towards the equator is another important factor in the comparison.
 Mexico includes much of the Mesoamerican and Madrean pine-oak woodlands biodiversity hotspots. From a biogeographic standpoint, most of Mexico is linked to the rest of North America as part of the Nearctic ecozone.
 However, the lowlands of southern Mexico are linked with Central America and South America as part of the Neotropic ecozone.
 Extensive mixing of Nearctic and Neotropical mammal species commenced only three million years ago, when the formation of the Isthmus of Panama ended South America's long period of isolation and precipitated the Great American Interchange.
 Twenty of Mexico's extant nonflying species (opossums, armadillos, anteaters, monkeys and caviomorph rodents) are of South American origin.
 Most of the megafauna that formerly inhabited the region became extinct at the end of the Pleistocene about 10,000 years ago, shortly after the arrival of the first humans.
 Increasing alteration and destruction of natural habitats by expanding human populations during the last several centuries is causing further attrition of the region's biodiversity, as exemplified by the 'hotspot' designations (by definition, such areas have lost over 70% of their primary vegetation).
The creeping zinnias (genus Sanvitalia ) are plants belonging to the sunflower family.
 They are native to mostly to Mexico, with a few species in Central America, South America, and the Southwestern United States.
Sanvitalia abertii is a species of flowering plant in the aster family known by the common names Abert's creeping zinnia and Abert's sanvitalia.
 It is native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, where it grows in desert scrub, desert mountains and woodlands.
 It is an annual herb somewhat variable in appearance.
 The mainly erect stem may be 2 to 29 centimeters tall, and simple or with many branches.
 The linear or lance-shaped leaves are a few centimeters long.
 The plant is coated in rough hairs.
 The inflorescence is a cyme of flower heads with thick, leathery yellow ray florets 2 or 3 millimeters long and notched at the tips.
 The fruit is an achene.
 Achenes arising from the ray florets are light-colored and tipped with pappi, while those from the disc florets at the center of the flower head are darker and lack pappi.
The Hispanos of New Mexico (less commonly referred to as Nuevomexicanos) are people of Spanish or Amerindian-Hispanic descent native to the region of Santa Fé de Nuevo Mexico, now the Four Corners region but primarily centering on New Mexico and southern Colorado, in the United States.
 For most of its modern history, New Mexico belonged to Spain (16th century – 1821) and later Mexico (1821–1848).
 Like some of the "Californios" and "Tejanos", most settlers in New Mexico were of Spanish ancestry (either directly or through Mexico).
 The descendants of the settlers make up an ethnic community of more than 340,000 in New Mexico, with others in southern Colorado.
Buckinghamia is a genus of only two known species of trees, belonging to the plant family Proteaceae.
 They grow naturally only (endemic) in the rainforests of the wet tropics region of north eastern Queensland, Australia.
 The ivory curl flower, "B. celsissima", is the well known, popular and widely cultivated species in gardens and parks, in eastern and southern mainland Australia, and additionally as street trees north from about Brisbane.
 The second species, "B. ferruginiflora", was only recently described in 1988.
Gobernador is a small, unincorporated community located in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico.
 Although not on a Native American reservation, Gobernador is about 50 miles east of the Navajo Indian Reservation and 15 miles west of the Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation.
 Carson National Forest also lies about five miles to the east.
 The community is situated near the junction of U.S. Highway 64 and New Mexico State Road 527.
 The nearest towns are Aztec, New Mexico, Dulce, New Mexico, and Arboles, Colorado.
 Gobernador lies in between the dry, arid land of northwest New Mexico and the forested, mountainous land of north central New Mexico, with sandy soil, smaller trees and other plants, and shorter mountains and mesas.
Bernardo López de Mendizábal (1620–September 16, 1664) was a Spanish politician, soldier, religious scholar, and native of modern Mexico, who served as governor of New Mexico between 1659–1660 and as alcalde mayor (or royal administrator) in Guayacocotla (on the Sierra Madre Oriental, northeast of Mexico City).
 Among Lopez' dictates as governor of New Mexico, he prohibited the Franciscan priests to force the Native Americans to work if they were not paid a salary and he recognized their right to practice their religion.
 He also permitted the Pueblos Native Americans to perform their religious dances (thus endorsing religious practices that had been prohibited for 30 years).
 These acts caused disagreements with the Franciscan missionaries of New Mexico in their dealings with the Native Americans.
 He was indicted by the Inquisition on thirty-three counts of malfeasance and the practice of Judaism in 1660.
 He was replaced in the same year and his administration ended.
 He was arrested in 1663 and died a prisoner in 1664.
