''Nepenthes robcantleyi'', or Robert Cantley's pitcher plant,〔(''Nepenthes robcantleyi'' (Robert Cantley's pitcher plant) ). Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. 〕 is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to the Philippine island of Mindanao.〔 It is closely allied to ''N. truncata'' and was once considered a dark, highland form of this species.〔Mey, F.S. 2011. (''Nepenthes robcantleyi'' aka "''Nepenthes'' black truncata" ). ''Strange Fruits: A Garden's Chronicle'', December 27, 2011.〕 ''N. veitchii'' from Borneo is also thought to be a close relative.〔 The pitchers of ''N. robcantleyi'' are exceptionally large, reaching 40 cm in length by 10 cm in width. The inflorescence, at up to 2.5 m long, is the tallest among known ''Nepenthes'' species.〔Smith, L. 2011. (The award-winning plant that dines on rats and reptiles ). ''The Independent'', December 26, 2011. 〕 The plant itself does not grow very tall, however, and is not known to climb.〔 The specific epithet ''robcantleyi'' honours Robert Cantley, who was involved in the plant's discovery, propagation, and introduction to cultivation.〔〔McPherson, S.R. 2011.
