dc.descriptionPhotographer's note: The pitcher is a development of the leaf-tip. Insects slip from the waxy rims of the pitchers into a liquid which digests them to provide nitrogen for the plant. This photograph was taken on top of Muller Range escarpment above Nali doline, on path from Hareke (on Koroba – Lake Kopiago road via Tumbudu Valley).
