Cheek 1997. A skeletal revision of ''Nepenthes'' (Nepenthaceae). ''Blumea'' 42(1): 1–106.〕 and a more in-depth treatment of the Malesian species for ''Flora Malesiana'' in 2001.〔Cheek, M.R. & M.H.P. Jebb 2001. Nepenthaceae. ''Flora Malesiana'' 15: 1–157.〕 In these and other works, Cheek has described a number of species new to science, often in collaboration with Jebb.
