Nepenthes alfredoi (Caryophyllales, Nepenthaceae), A New Species of Pitcher Plant from Mindanao, Philippines
View through CrossRef
The Philippines having the highest rates of endemism of this family is considered a center of diversity of the genus Nepenthes along with Sumatra and Borneo. Recent explorations in Mindanao and Luzon has raised the Philippine number of Nepenthes species to 52. This study reports the discovery of a new Nepenthes species from Mt. Hamiguitan. It is distinguished in having ground and upper pitchers with fringed wings on the tendril. The new species described herein was only observed at Gov. Generoso and has not been recorded elsewhere in the Philippines. Known only from the type locality and it faces severe threat from habitat destruction.
