Hello 
.
Shigeo Kurata has described this new species from Mindanao, Philippines, earlier in the year.
(Insectivorous Plant Society (2008, 59(1): 12-17) )
The species had been previously known by some growers as N. sp. Mt Hamiguitan.
The type description is based upon cultivated material.
The plant is characterised especially by a peltate leaf tip, ovoid pitchers and large nectar glands.
Here are some pictures taken by Stewart Mc Pherson:

Here are some other pictures from the plant by Thomas Gronemeyer who made the trip with Stewart.
