''Nepenthes murudensis'' , or the Murud Pitcher-Plant,〔Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1996. ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.〕 is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Mount Murud in Borneo, after which it is named. It is of putative hybrid origin: its two original parent species are thought to be ''N. reinwardtiana'' and ''N. tentaculata''.〔Clarke, C.M. 1997. ''Nepenthes of Borneo''. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.〕 ==Botanical history== ''Nepenthes murudensis'' was known for some time prior to its description, although authors differed as to its identity. In 1988, Anthea Phillipps and Anthony Lamb suggested that it might represent a natural hybrid between ''N. reinwardtiana'' and ''N. tentaculata''.〔Phillipps, A. & A. Lamb 1988. Pitcher-plants of East Malaysia and Brunei. ''Nature Malaysiana'' 13(4): 8–27.〕 However, in their 1996 monograph, ''Pitcher-Plants of Borneo'', the authors treated it as a species in the process of being described, referring to it as "''Nepenthes murudensis'' Culham ined.".〔 This name had been given to the taxon informally by Alastair Culham〔Phillipps, A., A. Lamb & C.C. Lee 2008. ''Pitcher Plants of Borneo''. Second Edition. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.〕 and was in use since at least 1994.〔Jebb, M. 1994. (NEPENTHES revision for Flora Malesiana ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, September 9, 1994.〕 ''Nepenthes murudensis'' was formally described in 1997 by Matthew Jebb and Martin Cheek in their monograph, "A skeletal revision of ''Nepenthes'' (Nepenthaceae)", published in the botanical journal ''Blumea''.〔 At the time of its description, botanists were divided on whether ''N. murudensis'' should be considered a species, although the consensus view held that it was of hybridogenic origin.〔Wistuba, A. 1996. (Re: nepenthes of Borneo ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, May 29, 1996.〕〔Lee, C.C. 1996. (N. sp. "murudiensis" ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, May 29, 1996.〕〔Schlauer, J. 1996. (Re: N. *murudensis auct., nom.nud. (s.typo, s.descr., ined.) ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, May 30, 1996.〕〔Lee, C.C. 1996. (Re: N. * murudensis ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, May 31, 1996.〕 The holotype of ''N. murudensis'', ''Yii Puan Ching S 44623'', was collected on September 13, 1982, between the first and second summits of Mount Murud. It is deposited at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.〔〔Schlauer, J. N.d. (''Nepenthes murudensis'' ). Carnivorous Plant Database.〕 Another specimen, ''Beaman 11461'', was collected by John H. Beaman between April 10 and April 17, 1995, from the summit ridge of Mount Murud at an elevation of between 2300 and 2400 m above sea level.〔Beaman, J.H. 1999. ''ASEAN Review of Biodiversity and Environmental Conservation'': 1–23.〕 This latter specimen was collected as part of the eighth botanical expedition to Mount Murud since Eric Mjöberg's first ascent in 1922.〔 The close relationship between ''N. murudensis'' and its putative parent species has led to some confusion in the literature. One example of this appears in the article "''Nepenthes'' of Gunung Murud", authored by John De Witte and published in a 1996 issue of the ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter'',〔De Witte, J. 1996. ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter'' 25(2): 41–45.〕 where an upper pitcher of ''N. murudensis'' is identified as ''N. tentaculata''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nepenthes murudensis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
