Subject: Help identifying Nepenthes

Greetings.

I have had an undentified species of Nepenthes for quite a few years (at
least 8). It lives in my air conditioned office and has acclimated quite
well. It produces lots of pitchers and it flowers about once a year (male
flowers).

I got this as a cutting and have never been able to identify it. A couple
of years ago, I took it to a local CP meeting and those in the know
pronounced it "some type of hybrid."

Surely there must be someone out there who could take a stab at
identification? I've posted a few photos at
"http://sun3.lib.uci.edu/~sclancy/cp.htm".

I'd really appreciate any educated opinions from some of you
nepenthophiles, er, nepenthephiles, um, Nepenthes-lovers. :-)
