Nepenthes Distribution
''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 the majority 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 Deaniana
''Nepenthes deaniana'' (; after Dean C. Worcester) is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to the Philippines, where it grows at an altitude of 1180–1296 m above sea level.McPherson, S.R. 2009. ''Pitcher Plants of the Old World''. 2 volumes. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole. The species is known only from the summit region of Thumb Peak, a relatively small, ultramafic mountain in Puerto Princesa Province, Palawan. ''Nepenthes deaniana'' has no known natural hybrids. No forms or varieties have been described. In his Carnivorous Plant Database, taxonomist Jan Schlauer treats '' N. gantungensis'', '' N. leonardoi'' and '' N. mira'' as heterotypic synonyms of ''N. deaniana''. Adolph Daniel Edward Elmer recorded a plant from Mount Pulgar (now known as Thumb Peak) matching the description of ''N. deaniana''. He made mention of this discovery in the April 20, 1912 issue of ''Leaflets of Philippine Botany'', in his formal description of '' N.&nb ...

Nepenthes Cornuta
''Nepenthes cornuta'' is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Philippines. It is known only from the Pantaron Mountain Range of central Mindanao, where it grows terrestrially on ultramafic soils at around 1000 m above sea level. This species is most closely allied to '' N. ceciliae'' and '' N. copelandii'', both also from Mindanao. All three belong to the much larger "''N. alata'' group", which also includes '' N. alata'', '' N. extincta'', '' N. graciliflora'', '' N. hamiguitanensis'', '' N. kitanglad'', '' N. kurata'', '' N. leyte'', '' N. mindanaoensis'', '' N. negros'', '' N. ramos'', '' N. saranganiensis'', and '' N. ultra''.Cheek, M. & M.

Nepenthes Copelandii
''Nepenthes copelandii'' (; after Edwin Copeland) is a species of pitcher plant native to the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. Originally known from Mount Apo near Davao City and Mount Pasian near Bislig, it has since been discovered on a number of peaks throughout Mindanao. It may also be present on the nearby island of Camiguin. The species has a wide altitudinal distribution of 1100–2400 m above sea level.McPherson, S.R. & V.B. Amoroso 2011. ''Field Guide to the Pitcher Plants of the Philippines''. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole. ''Nepenthes copelandii'' has no known natural hybrids.McPherson, S.R. 2009. ''Pitcher Plants of the Old World''. 2 volumes. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole. No forms or varieties have been described. The Mount Apo form has been cultivated by Australian hobbyists since the early 1980s, the taxon being referred to as "''N.'' sp. Philippines No. 2". Plants from Mount Pasian only entered cultivation much later. ''Nepent ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nepenthes Cid
''Nepenthes cid'' is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Philippines. It is known only from Bukidnon Province, Mindanao, where it has been recorded as an epiphyte on tall trees at 770 m altitude. This species belongs to the informal "''N. micramphora'' group", which also includes '' N. abgracilis'' from northeastern Mindanao and '' N. micramphora'' from southeastern Mindanao. N. cid harbors diminutive, subcylindrical pitchers that narrow to the middle and gradually expand towards the base. The specific epithet ''cid'' refers to F. Cid of the University of the Philippines herbarium, who collected the type specimen in 1952. The authors recommend that this species be assessed as Critically Endangered because the only population is composed of two individuals in a region facing extensive habitat conversion and issues from commercial logging.
