Is this a N. dubia?

I got this seed grown N. dubia from JH a while back, but I think maybe there is some other species mixed in it. I've been a bit suspicious of it being a true species for a while now but now that it's made a lot of uppers for me I'm more confident that it's not. Anyone have an opinion on if it's a true N. dubia? I think the mouth is too wide, and the lid doesn't reflex enough.

However, it does look like the other N. dubia JH has: Jeremiah's Carnivorous Plants on Instagram: "A couple really nice Nepenthes dubia pitchers."

If it's not a N. dubia, I'm wondering what could be in there? Perhaps N. dubia x jamban?

It's dubia x jamban, I have a plant with similar obvious jamban traits that came from him. Pure dubia I'm still waiting to locate.
 
Thanks, I actually should have read through the instagram post comments too, as the people there also thought it wasn't a true N. dubia.

I guess I'll mark it as some hybrid. I did manage to get a N. dubia AW cutting from Carnivero recently, but it has no pitchers for me to compare yet.
