I just joined the list yesterday, so I thought I'd introduce myself.
I live in Tasmania, Australia, and while I don't currently keep any CPs,
I've always had an interest in them. I'm currently studying for my PhD in
botany, specialising in red tides and algal blooms.

We have several species of Drosera in the state, including
        D. arcturi
        D. Pygmaea
        D. glanduligera
        D. spathulata
        D. binata
        D. auriculata
        D. peltata
        D. gracilis, and
        D. planchonii

We also have several species of Utricularia:

        U. flexulosa
        U. dichotoma
        U. lateriflora, and
        U. monanthos

As far as I know these are the only insectivorous plants native to Tassie,
but I may be mistaken.

Cheers
