Nepenthes Clipeata

Nepenthes clipeata ( /nɨˈpɛnθiːz ˌklɪpiːˈɑːtə/; from Latin: clipeus = round shield; referring to leaf shape), or the Shield-Leaved Pitcher-Plant, is a tropical pitcher plant known only from the near-vertical granite cliff faces of Mount Kelam in Kalimantan, Borneo. It has an altitudinal distribution of approximately 600 to 800 m.

Nepenthes clipeata is perhaps the most endangered of all Nepenthes species, with only an estimated 15 plants remaining in the wild as of 1995 (although see N. pitopangii and N. rigidifolia).
