Nepenthes dactylifera is a Bornean species that was previously grouped with N. fusca before the complex was split into 3 species - fusca, dactylifera, and zakriana. Dactylifera is easy to identify by its long and slender lids, which happen to look like ET fingers, especially on upper pitchers. (Dactylifera can be translated as finger leaf.) This clone is male.
