''Nepenthes madagascariensis'' (; from Madagascar) is one of two ''Nepenthes'' pitcher plant species native to Madagascar, the other being ''N. masoalensis''.
==Botanical history==
''Nepenthes madagascariensis'' was the first ''Nepenthes'' species to be discovered; Étienne de Flacourt recorded it in 1658 under the name ''Amramatico''. He published a description of the plant in his seminal work ''Histoire de la Grande Isle de Madagascar''. It reads:〔de Flacourt, É. 1658. ''Histoire de la Grande Isle de Madagascar''.〕
It is a plant growing about 3 feet high which carries at the end of its leaves, which are 7 inches long, a hollow flower or fruit resembling a small vase, with its own lid, a wonderful sight. There are red ones and yellow ones, the yellow being the biggest. The inhabitants of this country are reluctant to pick the flowers, saying that if somebody does pick them in passing, it will not fail to rain that day. As to that, I and all the other Frenchmen did pick them, but it did not rain. After rain these flowers are full of water, each one containing a good half-glass. (from French in ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo'' )〔Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.〕
