REVISIONS IN NEPENTHES FOLLOWING EXPLORATIONS OF THE KEMUL MASSIF AND THE SURROUNDING REGION IN NORTH-CENTRAL KALIMANTAN, BORNEO An expedition led by Alastair S. Robinson to the highest peak of the Kemul Massif located a number of different Nepenthes taxa, including the type populations of N. fusca and N. mollis, neither of which have been observed in situ since they were first collected in 1925. Studies of the type form of N. fusca show that two further species should be considered, one largely restricted to Sabah’s Crocker range —here reinstated as N. zakriana— the second a southerly distributed species from Brunei, Sarawak and Kalimantan, named here as N. dactylifera. Analysis of the type population of N. mollis indicates that N. hurrelliana is a heterotypic synonym of N. mollis, and reveals an additional undescribed Nepenthes species from Sarawak FUND RAISING RAFFLE and Kalimantan with a widespread The AUSCPS is holding a new raffle for 2019.
