Carnivorous plants of Australia

October 27, 2023

For the three-volume work by Allen Lowrie, see Carnivorous Plants of Australia.

Australia has one of the world's richest carnivorous plant floras, with around 187 recognised species from 6 genera.[1]

Cephalotus follicularis, a low growing pitcher plant endemic to Southwest Australia

Species edit

The following list is derived from Australian Carnivorous Plants (2012) by Greg Bourke and Richard Nunn.[1] It notably excludes the genus Stylidium, whose members may be considered to be protocarnivorous or carnivorous because the glandular trichomes that cover the scape and flower can trap, kill, and digest small insects with protease enzymes produced by the plant.[2]

Aldrovanda (1 species)
Byblis (8 species; endemic)
Cephalotus (1 species; endemic)
Drosera (117 species)
Nepenthes (4 species)
Utricularia (59 species)
