|}} ''Nepenthes copelandii'' (; after Edwin Copeland) is a species of pitcher plant native to the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. Originally known from Mount Apo near Davao City and Mount Pasian near Bislig, it has since been discovered on a number of peaks throughout Mindanao.〔 It may also be present on the nearby island of Camiguin.〔Macfarlane, J.M. 1927. The Philippine species of ''Nepenthes''. ''The Philippine Journal of Science'' 33(2): 127–140.〕〔Co, L. & W. Suarez 2012. (Nepenthaceae ). Co's Digital Flora of the Philippines.〕〔Heinrich, V.B. 2009. (Philippines: Volcanoes ''Nepenthes'' and more ). Carnivorous Plants in the tropics, October 28, 2009.〕 The species has a wide altitudinal distribution of 1100–2400 m above sea level.〔McPherson, S.R. & V.B. Amoroso 2011. ''Field Guide to the Pitcher Plants of the Philippines''. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole.〕 ''Nepenthes copelandii'' has no known natural hybrids.〔McPherson, S.R. 2009. ''Pitcher Plants of the Old World''. 2 volumes. Redfern Natural History Productions, Poole.〕 No forms or varieties have been described. The Mount Apo form has been cultivated by Australian hobbyists since the early 1980s, the taxon being referred to as "''N.'' sp. Philippines No. 2". Plants from Mount Pasian only entered cultivation much later.〔Bourke, G. 2010. (Plant profile: ''Nepenthes copelandii''. ) ''Captive Exotics Newsletter'' 1(2): 9. 〕 ''Nepenthes copelandii'' belongs to the informal "''N. alata'' group", which also includes ''N. alata'', ''N. ceciliae'', ''N. extincta'', ''N. graciliflora'', ''N. hamiguitanensis'', ''N. kitanglad'', ''N. kurata'', ''N. leyte'', ''N. mindanaoensis'', ''N. negros'', ''N. ramos'', ''N. saranganiensis'', and ''N. ultra''.〔〔Cheek, M. & M. Jebb 2013. Recircumscription of the ''Nepenthes alata'' group (Caryophyllales: Nepenthaceae), in the Philippines, with four new species. ''European Journal of Taxonomy'' 69: 1–23. 〕〔Cheek, M. & M.

''Nepenthes ultra'' (Nepenthaceae), a new species from Luzon, Philippines. ''Blumea'', published online on October 24, 2013. 〕 These species are united by a number of morphological characters, including winged petioles, lids with basal ridges on the lower surface (often elaborated into appendages), and upper pitchers that are usually broadest near the base.〔〔 In his Carnivorous Plant Database, taxonomist Jan Schlauer treats ''N. copelandii'' as a heterotypic synonym of ''N. alata''.〔Schlauer, J.
