Nepenthes × ferrugineomarginata (pronounced /nəˈpɛnθiːz ˌfɛruːˈɡɪniːoʊˌmɑrdʒɨˈnɑːtə/, from Latin: ferrugineus = rust coloured, marginatus = margined) is a natural hybrid between N. albomarginata and N. reinwardtiana. Its natural range covers the islands Borneo and Sumatra. The type specimen was collected by Shigeo Kurata in Kenukat, West Kalimantan, in 1981. Kurata described the hybrid the following year.
