Nepenthes fusca
Nepenthes fusca /nɨˈpɛnθiːz ˈfʌskə/, or the Dusky Pitcher-Plant, is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Borneo. It is found throughout a wide altitudinal range and is almost always epiphytic in nature, primarily growing in mossy forest.The specific epithet fusca is derived from the Latin word fuscus, meaning ""dark brown"" or ""dusky"", and refers to the colour of the pitchers.
