Darlingtonia californica is a well-known insectivorous pitcher plant belonging to the American pitcher plant family, Sarraceniaceae. It was first collected by William Brackenridge during the overland portion of the U.S. Exploring Expedition in early October, 1841. The three genera in this family have a wide geographic distribution: Sarracenia occur in the eastern United States; Heliamphora are found in northern South America; and Darlingtonia, a monotypic genus, grows in wet areas in western Oregon and northern California.
