I am also fascinated by this species. I remember seeing the name as N. sp.
'tudjuh' (sp?) and found that it has recently been changed to N.
aristolochioides. This is the most unique nepenthes I've ever seen,
differing markedly from other neps in the pitcher formation. I would like
to know what the nearest relative is. I would guess N. talangensis since
the pitchers are also bulbous at the top. If anyone has any information,
please respond to the list.
