Nepenthes campanulata
Very sad-looking, tiny plant. The pitcher on the right is smaller than my pinkie nail. N.campanulata's been thought to be extinct in the wild due to devastating forest fires in its type locality, but fortunately it has been rediscovered at a separate locality and brought into tissue culture. They've lost it once, they're making sure it'll never be lost to cultivation again. Pitchers look like little bells (hence "campanulata") and have almost no lip.
