N. dubia:
...one could call the pitchers toilet-shaped ;-) They are tubulous in
the lower half and infundibuliform in the upper. The peristome is
broad, flat and prominent which gives the toilet-like appearance. The
lid is cuneate and pointed backwards like in N. ampullaria. The plant
is gracile and grows as an epiphyte in the wild. Gunung Talakmau;
Sumatra.
N. mapuluensis:
Like a small N. northiana in the young plant. Very broad obovate
leaves, sometimes reddish. The upper pitchers are
slender-infundibuliform reminding a lot to N. spectabilis. Colour is
also similar. Very nice. Gunung Mapulu and Gunung Tebalar; East
Borneo.
