Nepeta crispa Willd (local name: Moffarah) is a perennial herbaceous plant of the Lamiaceae family. This species is endemic to Iran. Its habitats are Alvand Mountain in the central part of Hamedan province and Garin Heights on the border between Hamedan and Lorestan provinces, at 2300 to 3400 meters above sea level. In this study, the conservation status of this endemic species was determined based on IUCN categories and criteria: extent of occurrence (EOO), area of occupancy (AOO), population size, and habitat quality. According to the results of this study, the species is classified as "Critically Endangered". In addition to climate change and temperature increase as a global factor in changing the habitats and living conditions of plant species, indiscriminate harvesting of this aromatic species, creation of tourist attractions in the area, overgrazing, and granite mining from the habitats of this species are other factors that threaten this species. Planting and propagation of N. crispa in Bu-Ali Sina Medicinal Plant Garden in Hamedan and promoting the culture of its cultivation by villagers instead of wild harvesting have been effective measures to protect the habitat of this species. Furthermore, protecting the seeds in the Natural Resources Seed Bank of Iran is the other effective ex-situ conservation procedure. The sowing of the seeds in its known habitats and the management and protection of these habitats are among the priority programs that must be recognized by the Natural Resources and Watershed Organization of Iran as an in-situ conservation procedure.
