No such source known to me.

No confirmation possible. _Aristolochia_ (many species known and
studied) traps insects by the flowers. The insects are released after
anthesis/pollination. They are *NEVER* digested although some
creatures may not survive their imprisonment.

> or confirmation of its not being insectivorous at any stage,

This is hereby confirmed (see above).

Kind regards and a HNY
