The International Carnivorous Plant Society (ICPS) is a non-profit organization founded in 1972. It is the International Cultivar Registration Authority for carnivorous plants.〔(About the ICPS ). International Carnivorous Plant Society.〕 As of June 2011, the society had around 1400 members.〔Baldwin, M. 2011. From the president. ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter'' 40(2): 43.〕 The ICPS is probably best known for its quarterly publication, the ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter''. __NOTOC__ ==Conservation efforts== The ICPS has set up the ''Nepenthes clipeata'' Survival Project (NcSP) to facilitate ''ex situ'' conservation of this species.〔Cantley, R., C.M. Clarke, J. Cokendolpher, B. Rice & A. Wistuba 2004. (''Nepenthes clipeata'' Survival Project ). International Carnivorous Plant Society.〕 With only an estimated 15 plants remaining in the wild as of 1995, ''Nepenthes clipeata'' is the most endangered of all known tropical pitcher plants.〔Simpson, R.B. 1995. ''Nepenthes'' and conservation. ''Curtis's Botanical Magazine'' 12: 111–118.〕 It is estimated that there are only three or four genetically-distinct lines of "white market" (legally collected) plants in cultivation.〔 The ICPS partially funded the establishment of The Rare ''Nepenthes'' Collection, which aims to conserve four of the rarest ''Nepenthes'' species: ''N. aristolochioides'', ''N. clipeata'', ''N. khasiana'', and ''N. rigidifolia''.〔Ziemer, B. 2010. Exciting conservation news: The Rare ''Nepenthes'' Collection project! ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter'' 39(3): 67.〕
