Nepenthes ampullaria
This species is thought to be adding the digestion of forest detrius, in addition to insects, to its bag of tricks. Notice the greatly reduced lid, allowing leaf litter, twigs, etc. to freely enter the pitcher.
Photographed in the bush outside of Bau, about an hour southwest of Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia
