Nepenthes gracillima Ridley (1908) |
Nepenthes gracillima (Latin: comparative of gracilis = slender) is a highland Nepenthes pitcher plant species, native to Peninsular Malaysia. It is very similar to N. ramispina and there is much debate about whether the two should be treated as separate species.
