I wasn't thinking when I took the pictures. If I was I would have taken one of the whole plant! I will post again when I can borrow the digital camera from work. I haven't gone digital yet, I'm still using 35mm and my scanner is not working.
On another forum someone suggested this plant was perhaps N. tobaica x N. ventricosa. I have suspected that there may be some vetricosa in its lineage based on the shape of the peristome.
Were the spots on the leaves there when you got the plant and are you seeing more now? Are they appearing on new leaves as they mature? It is a concern but it would be more of a concern if it appears the condition is getting worse and continuing to spread to younger leaves as they mature.

I don't believe the spots were there when I got the plant. They are mature leaves not young ones. The leaf in the photo is the worst. Some of the older leaves have spots but not as many. I had a serious white fly infestation (great Ping food) but never noticed any on my Neps, I'm hoping the plant wasn't infected with a virus of some sort! All of my other Neps are doing great.
