List of Nepenthes Natural Hybrids - Outlying Areas

Outlying Areas

There are six additional species endemic to areas other than those listed above. These are:

  • N. distillatoria (Sri Lanka)
  • N. khasiana (India)
  • N. madagascariensis (Madagascar)
  • N. masoalensis (Madagascar)
  • N. pervillei (Seychelles)
  • N. vieillardii (New Caledonia)

Of these, the only species that could conceivably hybridise in the wild are N. madagascariensis and N. masoalensis. Although the ranges of the two species used to meet near Cape Masoala, no natural hybrids have ever been recorded.

Famous quotes containing the words outlying and/or areas:

    In my utter impotence to test the authenticity of the report of my senses, to know whether the impressions they make on me correspond with outlying objects, what difference does it make, whether Orion is up there in heaven, or some god paints the image in the firmament of the soul?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
