Indio Mountains Research Station is a 41,200 acre property located in far west Texas and administered by the University of Texas at El Paso. The landscape at the station is represented mostly by pristine Chihuahuan Desert scrubland encompassing the Indio Mountains which run from north to south with primarily east- and west-facing slopes. With recent acquisition of additional land, IMRS now reaches the Rio Grande increasing the role of this station on the protection and conservation of diversity. This presentation by Dr. Vicente Mata-Silva will be about plant species and their associations found at IMRS, including rare species and how snakes interact with plants.
