Default N. Attenboroughii hits mainstream news

http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/as...ant/index.html

http://news.bbc.co.uk/earth/hi/earth...00/8195029.stm

Two articles about N. Attenboroughii, lots of sensationalism of course and lot of inaccuracies, they even added a photo of a Northiana with a mouse in it, just to show that Neps are Rat eaters! Gosh!

Here in Philippines, there were two news report on TV using or flashing the same Northiana and mouse photo, with very general information about the discovered species.

Anyways, at least the latest Nepenthes Discovered has reached "mainstream".
