Default Re: Some Nepenthes from Kelantan

It must have been an interesting trip. Nice pictures and thanks for sharing.

I noticed from the 13th picture from the bottom, there are some slugs near the sanguinea pitcher mouth. They seem to look like the same slugs I found in a sanguine pitcher in Genting Highlands (posted a picture some time back). I wonder what their relationship are with the pitchers since they are widespread and inhabit other sanguinea pitchers in different geographical locations.

You guys found some really huge sanguinea picthers there. Your pictures are making me feel "itchy" to organise another trip to see neps in the wild.

I just realised that some of the bestonii pitchers look like N. mirabilis x thorelii or N. thorelii especially when they are red in colour.
