N.stenophylla
 
Saw N.stenophylla on my trip to Bario last month. The place is about 900m and the weather is cold during the night.. a bit like cameron highland. N.stenophylla was growing by the roadside under bushes and small trees.

Found N.reinwardtiana on the same area, but not too many.

Moss also found commonly growing by the roadside.

Ya, I went by plane... that is the easiest and cheapest way.
If by land will take 1 day, 1st go by 4x4 then boat then 4x4 again.

The soil were the pitcher grow on is a mixture with sand.
N.Lowii also can be seen on one of the mountain there... but I only found out when i saw the poster at the airport on my way back home :(

Bario is at Sarawak, near the Kalimatan border.
Is a remote place where the Kelabit people stay. It's famous for rice and pineapple... yummy :)

Do u mean N.hurreliana??
Nope, 99% of the pitchers that I saw are stenophylla, may be is on another trail or could be i didnt notice it. but I heard that the trail to Mt Murud has more species such as lowii, hurreliana, muluensis.. probably next time going for tat trail.
