''Nepenthes vogelii'' is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Borneo. It is thought to be most closely related to ''N. fusca''. ==Botanical history== The first known collection of ''N. vogelii'' was made in 1961 on Mount Api in Gunung Mulu National Park by forest botanist J. A. R. Anderson. The material, labelled as ''N. fusca'', was deposited at the Sarawak Forestry Department herbarium.〔Phillipps, A., A. Lamb & C.C. Lee 2008. ''Pitcher Plants of Borneo''. Second Edition. Natural History Publications (Borneo), Kota Kinabalu.〕 In 1969, botanist Shigeo Kurata examined this specimen and noted that it did not fall within the known variation exhibited by ''N. fusca''.〔 ''Nepenthes vogelii'' was formally described in 2002 by Andre Schuiteman and Eduard Ferdinand de Vogel. The description was published in the botanical journal ''Blumea''〔Schuiteman, A. & E.F. de Vogel 2002. ''Nepenthes vogelii'' (Nepenthaceae): a new species from Sarawak. ''Blumea'' 47(3): 537–540.〕 and is based on a single cultivated specimen, ''A.Vogel, A.Schuiteman & T.Roelfsema 981037'' (SAR).〔Schlauer, J. 2006. (''Nepenthes'' ). Carnivorous Plant Database.〕 This specimen was collected as a seedling in the Kelabit Highlands of Sarawak in 1997 and subsequently raised to maturity by Art Vogel, botanist and former conservatory manager of the Hortus Botanicus Leiden. ''Nepenthes vogelii'' is named in his honour.〔 Some time prior to its description, ''N. vogelii'' entered cultivation through Ch'ien Lee's Malesiana Tropicals plant nursery under the name "''Nepenthes'' spec. 4".〔Fleischmann, A. 2003. (''Drosera peruensis'' spec. nov. from Peru ). Carnivorous Plant Mailing List, January 12, 2003.〕 Few specimens of this species are deposited in herbaria, likely due to its epiphytic growth habit, which makes it hard to find without the aid of binoculars.〔 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 vogelii」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
