Nepenthes × alisaputrana (after Datuk Lamri Ali, Director of Sabah Parks) is a hybrid of two well-known Nepenthes pitcher plant species: N. burbidgeae and N. rajah. The plant is confined to Mount Kinabalu in Sabah, Borneo. N. × alisaputrana produces spectacular pitchers rivalling those of its parent species (>30 cm high, <20 cm wide). It is listed on CITES Appendix II.
