Mount Pangulubao or Pangulubau (Indonesian: Gunung Pangulubao) is a mountain near Lake Toba in Sumatra.
Mount Pangulubao is notable for the relatively large number of tropical pitcher plant species that inhabit its forests. These include Nepenthes ampullaria, Nepenthes gymnamphora, Nepenthes mikei, Nepenthes ovata, Nepenthes rhombicaulis, Nepenthes spectabilis, and Nepenthes tobaica. The natural hybrid Nepenthes × pangulubauensis is named after it.
Famous quotes containing the word mount:
“On the 31st of August, 1846, I left Concord in Massachusetts for Bangor and the backwoods of Maine,... I proposed to make excursions to Mount Ktaadn, the second highest mountain in New England, about thirty miles distant, and to some of the lakes of the Penobscot, either alone or with such company as I might pick up there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
