Plants (Drosera, Utricularia?) for minimally ventilated cloche?

I've found a rather nice cloche on eBay, about five inches across, which I'd like to grow something carnivorous under. It unfortunately doesn't have any air holes, so ventilation will be fairly limited. Does anyone have recommendations for plants that might do well regardless? I've seen photos of D. spatulata and D. capensis grown in jars, I know D. adelae is often suggested for terrariums, and I intend to experiment with a few different terrestrial bladderworts, but I thought I'd ask for other suggestions here.
 
hate to see zero replies 🧐
I have an aquarium that I don't water, it has a 97% glass cover with a one-inch diagonal missing on the corner. beneath the "floor level" is several inches of water. I never water this terrarium, and by far the happiest plants are my lowland nepenthes, as well as u. longifolia
 
'Sorry I didn't see this one but thanks for bringing it up to the surface again, NewpaperFort. I agree that U. longifolia is a likely good choice as well as those species that Fishkeeper mentioned. From my experiences, I'd add Drosera 'watari' and D. graomogolensis. On my more sealed growing enclosures I like to take the lid off and exhale into them occasionally. I figure the plants can use the CO2.
