NEPENTHES FUSCA

'''Nepenthes fusca''' (Latin: ''fuscus'' = dark brown, dusky) is an intermediate to highland species of pitcher plant from the island of Borneo. It is found throughout a wide altitudinal range (1200-2500 m) and is almost always epiphytic in nature, primarily growing in mossy forest. It is closely related to ''N. faizaliana'' and considered by some authors to be conspecific with ''N. zakriana''.
