    The genus Nepenthes, commonly known as tropical pitcher plants, consists of 130 carnivorous plant species found in tropical areas of Asia and Australia. The plants can grow up to 15-20 meters tall by climbing other plants and use modified tendrils at the ends of leaves to form pitfall traps called pitchers that capture prey like insects and frogs to meet their nutritional needs in nutrient-poor habitats. The islands of Borneo and Sumatra have the most Nepenthes species.

    Kantong semar

    The genus Nepenthes (Semar bag, English: Tropical pitcher


    plant), which belongs to the monotypic family, consists of 130 species
    and does not include natural or artificial hybrids.
    This genus is a carnivorous plant in the tropics of the Old World,
    now covering Indonesia, southern China, Indochina, Malaysia,
    Philippines, western Madagascar, Seychelles, New Caledonia, India, Sri
    Lanka and Australia.
    The habitat with the most species is on the islands of Borneo and
    Sumatra.
    This plant can reach a height of 15-20 m by climbing other
    plants, although there are some species that do not climb. At the tips of
    the leaves there are tendrils that can be modified to form pockets, which
    are traps used to eat their prey (eg insects, pacifiers, young frogs) that
    enter inside.
    This bag is used to meet nutritional needs that are not available in
    growing habitats
