center of leaf

yes I know it needs some imaginaton but my camera sux so I cant take a good pic..

I am just wondering what could be wrong. Its the green lowland form from wistuba and its growing in typical lowland climate. it gets fed every now and then with a cricket
 
When was the last time you changed your potting medium? Did it experience any shift in climactic conditions? Sometime Neps just put out a funny leaf, but if the leaves are getting smaller and smaller, I usually suspect the potting medium is too wet or compact. Smaller pitchers could be the result of a climbing stem shifting into upper pitcher mode.
 
The plant looks pretty darn healthy to me
