Nepenthes × Pangulubauensis
''Nepenthes'' × ''pangulubauensis'' (; from Mount Pangulubau) is a natural hybrid between '' N. mikei'' and '' N. gymnamphora'' (or '' N. xiphioides'', depending on whether it is considered a distinct species). It is endemic to the Indonesian island of Sumatra.McPherson, S.R. & A. Robinson 2012.

Bruce Salmon
The English language name Bruce arrived in Scotland with the Normans, from the place name Brix, Manche in Normandy, France, meaning "the willowlands". Initially promulgated via the descendants of king Robert the Bruce (1274−1329), it has been a Scottish surname since medieval times; it is now a common given name. The variant ''Lebrix'' and ''Le Brix'' are French variations of the surname.

Nomen Nudum
In taxonomy, a ''nomen nudum'' ('naked name'; plural ''nomina nuda'') is a designation which looks exactly like a scientific name of an organism, and may have originally been intended to be one, but it has not been published with an adequate description. This makes it a "bare" or "naked" name, which cannot be accepted as it stands. A largely equivalent but much less frequently used term is ''nomen tantum'' ("name only"). In zoology According to the rules of zoological nomenclature a ''nomen nudum'' is unavailable; the glossary of the ''International Code of Zoological Nomenclature'' gives this definition: And among the rules of that same Zoological Code: In botany According to the rules of botanical nomenclature a ''nomen nudum'' is not validly published. The glossary of the ''International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants'' gives this definition: The requirements for the diagnosis or description are covered by articles 32, 36, 41, 42, and 44.

Mount Pangulubau
Mount Pangulubao or Pangulubau ( id, Gunung Pangulubao) is a mountain near Lake Toba in Sumatra. Mount Pangulubao is notable for its large number of native tropical pitcher plant species. These include '' Nepenthes ampullaria'', ''Nepenthes gymnamphora'', ''Nepenthes mikei'', ''Nepenthes ovata'', '' Nepenthes rhombicaulis'', ''Nepenthes spectabilis'', and ''Nepenthes tobaica''.Clarke, C.M. 2001.

Natural Hybrid
In biology, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction. Hybrids are not always intermediates between their parents (such as in blending inheritance), but can show hybrid vigor, sometimes growing larger or taller than either parent. The concept of a hybrid is interpreted differently in animal and plant breeding, where there is interest in the individual parentage. In genetics, attention is focused on the numbers of chromosomes. In taxonomy, a key question is how closely related the parent species are. Species are reproductively isolated by strong barriers to hybridisation, which include genetic and morphological differences, differing times of fertility, mating behaviors and cues, and physiological rejection of sperm cells or the developing embryo. Some act before fertilization and others after it. Similar barriers exist in plants, with differences in flowering tim ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nepenthes Mikei
''Nepenthes mikei'' is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Sumatra. It is characterised by its black mottled lower and upper pitchers. The species is closely related to '' N. angasanensis'' and '' N. tobaica''.Clarke, C.M. 2001. ''Nepenthes of Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu. The specific epithet ''mikei'' honours Mike Hopkins, who co-discovered the species with the describing authors. Botanical history ''Nepenthes mikei'' was discovered on Mount Pangulubao in September 1989 by Bruce Salmon, Mike Hopkins, and Ricky Maulder, during a ''Nepenthes'' expedition to Sumatra. On this trip, the team also found two other undescribed ''Nepenthes'' taxa on the mountain: '' N. ovata'' and a plant they named '' N. xiphioides''. The latter is now considered a heterotypic synonym of '' N. gymnamphora''.McPherson, S.R. 2009. ''Pitcher Plants of the Old World''. 2 volumes. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole ...

Nepenthes Gymnamphora
''Nepenthes gymnamphora'' is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra. It has a wide altitudinal range of above sea level. There is much debate surrounding the taxonomic status of this species and the taxon, taxa ''N. pectinata'' and ''N. xiphioides''. The specific name (botany), specific epithet ''gymnamphora'' is derived from the Greek language, Greek words ''gymnos'' (naked) and ''amphoreus'' (pitcher). Taxonomy The ''N. gymnamphora'' group of related taxon, taxa has been variously interpreted as comprising a single extremely variable species (''N. gymnamphora'');McPherson, S.R. 2009.

Endemic (ecology)
Endemism is the state of a species being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, the Cape sugarbird is found exclusively in southwestern South Africa and is therefore said to be ''endemic'' to that particular part of the world. An endemic species can be also be referred to as an ''endemism'' or in scientific literature as an ''endemite''. For example '' Cytisus aeolicus'' is an endemite of the Italian flora. '' Adzharia renschi'' was once believed to be an endemite of the Caucasus, but it was later discovered to be a non-indigenous species from South America belonging to a different genus. The extreme opposite of an endemic species is one with a cosmopolitan distribution, having a global or widespread range. A rare alternative term for a species that is endemic is "precinctive", which applies to s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

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 sixth-largest island in the world at 473,481 km2 (182,812 mi.2), not including adjacent islands such as the Simeulue, Nias, Mentawai, 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, 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 the Andaman Islands, while off the southeastern coast lie the islands of Bangka and Belitung, Karim ...
