Nepenthes Bicalcarata
''Nepenthes bicalcarata'' (; from Latin Latin ( or ) is a classical language belonging to the Italic languages, Italic branch of the Indo-European languages. Latin was originally spoken by the Latins (Italic tribe), Latins in Latium (now known as Lazio), the lower Tiber area aroun ... for "two-spurred"), also known as the fanged pitcher-plant,Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. is a tropical pitcher plant which is endemism, endemic to Borneo. It is a vine up to length. It is a myrmecophyte noted for its Mutualism (biology), mutualistic association with a species of ant, ''Camponotus schmitzi''. As an Myrmecotrophy, ant-fed plant it lacks many of the features that characterise the carnivorous syndrome in ''Nepenthes'', including viscoelasticity, viscoelastic and highly acidic pitcher fluid, the waxy zone of the pitcher interior, and possibly even functional digestive enzymes.

Nepenthes Villosa
''Nepenthes villosa'' , or the villose pitcher-plant,Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Mount Kinabalu and neighbouring Mount Tambuyukon in northeastern Borneo. It grows at higher elevations than any other Bornean ''Nepenthes'' species, occurring at elevations of over . ''Nepenthes villosa'' is characterised by its highly developed and intricate peristome, which distinguishes it from the closely related '' N. edwardsiana'' and '' N. macrophylla''.Clarke, C.M. 1997. ''Nepenthes of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. The specific epithet ''villosa'' is Latin for "hairy" and refers to the dense indumentum of this species. Botanical history ''Nepenthes villosa'' was formally described in 1852 by Joseph Dalton Hooker. The description was published in ''Icones plantarum'' and accompanied by an illustration.

Nepenthes Edwardsiana
''Nepenthes edwardsiana'' , or the splendid pitcher-plant,Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. is a carnivorous tropical pitcher plant endemic to Mount Kinabalu and neighbouring Mount Tambuyukon in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. It is considered one of the most spectacular of all ''Nepenthes'', producing some of the largest pitchers and the most highly developed peristome ribs of any species in the genus.Clarke, C.M. 1997. ''Nepenthes of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.

Nepenthes × Harryana
''Nepenthes'' × ''harryana'' (; after Harry Veitch, head of the well known horticultural firm of Veitch & Sons) is the natural hybrid between '' N. edwardsiana'' and '' N. villosa''.McPherson, S.R. & A. Robinson 2012. ''Field Guide to the Pitcher Plants of Borneo''. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole. Its two parent species are very closely related and so ''N. × harryana'', which is intermediate in form, may be difficult to distinguish from either of them. Botanical history ''Nepenthes'' × ''harryana'' was first described by Frederick William Burbidge in 1882. Burbidge wrote of it as follows: Apart from these I found an intermediate between N. villosa and N. Edwardsiana, also epiphytic on Casuarina. This is, I believe, unnamed; if so, I should like it to be called Nepenthes Harryana. Now, if a dried pitcher of N. Edwardsiana be examined, the upper four-fifths of it will be seen to be membranous, the lower part leathery and hard; in N. villosa nea ...

Sumatra
Sumatra () is one of the Sunda Islands of western Indonesia. It is the largest island that is fully within Indonesian territory, as well as the list of islands by area, sixth-largest island in the world at 482,286.55 km2 (182,812 mi.2), including adjacent islands such as the Simeulue Island, Simeulue, Nias Island, Nias, Mentawai Islands, Mentawai, Enggano Island, Enggano, Riau Islands, Bangka Belitung and Krakatoa archipelago. Sumatra is an elongated landmass spanning a diagonal northwest–southeast axis. The Indian Ocean borders the northwest, west, and southwest coasts of Sumatra, with the island chain of Simeulue, Nias, Mentawai Islands, Mentawai, and Enggano off the western coast. In the northeast, the narrow Strait of Malacca separates the island from the Malay Peninsula, which is an extension of the Eurasian continent. In the southeast, the narrow Sunda Strait, containing the Krakatoa archipelago, separates Sumatra from Java. The northern tip of Sumatra is near ...

''Nepenthes'' × ''ferrugineomarginata'' (; from Latin ''ferrugineus'' "rust coloured" and ''marginatus'' "margined") is a natural hybrid between '' N. albomarginata'' and '' N. reinwardtiana''.McPherson, S.R. & A.

The type specimen was collected by Shigeo Kurata in Kenukat, West Kalimantan, in 1981. Kurata described the hybrid the following year. The name is a '' nomen invalidum'' as it was published without a Latin description.''Nepenthes × ferrugineomarginata'' Sh.Kurata |
Nepenthes Cincta
''Nepenthes'' ( ) is a genus of carnivorous plants, also known as tropical pitcher plants, or monkey cups, in the monotypic family Nepenthaceae. The genus includes about 170 species, and numerous natural and many cultivated hybrids. They are mostly liana-forming plants of the Old World tropics, ranging from South China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines; westward to Madagascar (two species) and the Seychelles (one); southward to Australia (four) and New Caledonia (one); and northward to India (one) and Sri Lanka (one). The greatest diversity occurs on Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines, with many endemic species. Many are plants of hot, humid, lowland areas, but most are tropical, montane plants, receiving warm days but cool to cold, humid nights year-round. A few are considered tropical alpine, with cool days and nights near freezing. The name "monkey cups" refers to the fact that monkeys were once thought to drink rainwater from the pitchers.

Nepenthes Albomarginata
''Nepenthes albomarginata'' is a tropical pitcher plant native to Borneo, Peninsular Malaysia, and Sumatra. The specific epithet ''albomarginata'', formed from the Latin words ''albus'' (white) and ''marginatus'' (margin), refers to the white band of trichomes that is characteristic of this species. Botanical history ''Nepenthes albomarginata'' was first collected by Thomas Lobb in 1848. It was formally described a year later by John Lindley in '' The Gardeners' Chronicle''. The species was introduced into cultivation in the United Kingdom in 1856. In the 1996 book '' Pitcher-Plants of Borneo'', ''N. albomarginata'' is given the vernacular name white-collared pitcher-plant.Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. '' Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. This name, along with all others, was dropped from the much-expanded second edition, published in 2008.Phillipps, A., A. Lamb & C.C. Lee 2008.
