Cool article!

I propose that the new English name for N. albomarginata be "The picky pitcher plant"!

I knew that it eats termites. No news there. Now if the headlines had been "Only eats termites seasoned with paprika" or "spits out all non-termite insects" I would have been surprised.

News to me! Pretty cool. Now if only I saw this before burning all the termites in the fireplace from our infested wood a couple weeks ago.
