Nepenthes macrovulgaris (/nɪˈpɛnθiːzˌmækroʊvʌlˈɡɛərɪs/; from Greek macro- "large" and Latin vulgaris "common, usual"), or the serpentine pitcher-plant,[4] is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Borneo. It is a lowland plant that typically grows at altitudes ranging from 300 to 1200 m in sub-montane forest clearings and mossy forest. Its range is restricted to ultramafic habitats, including Mount Kinabalu, Mount Tambuyukon, the Danum Valley, the Tawai Range, the Meliau Range and Mount Silam, all in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Pitchers grow to around 25 cm high and range in colour from green to brown, with the speckled form being the most common.[5][6][7]
