Nepenthes hurreliana x veitchii
Maliau basin, Borneo, August 9, 2006
Another Nepenthes natural hybrid. I guess (but not sure) hurreliana x veitchii. We met most of these beautiful carnivorous plants on our way to the Camel Trophy camp, which in the meanwhile has been renamed to "Nepenthes camp".

Nepenthes fusca x burbidgeae
Maliau basin, Borneo, August 9, 2006
This is one of the many natural Nepenthes hybrids we encountered with my friend George in Maliau basin, during our week-long walk through the rainforest. It probably stems from Nepenthes fusca and Nepenthes burbidgeae, but I am not sure; any help?
Malcolmia macrocalyx ssp. scyria
Analipsi beach, Pelion, Thessaly, Mars 26, 2006
This particular subspecies of Malcolmia is reported only from the island of Scyros and the central part of Euboea, West of Kyme (brown areas on the map). I found it however on the rocks surrounding the beach of Analipsi, North of Chorefto, on the foothills of Mt. Pelion (red arrow on the map). It seems then that this rare taxa, endemic to the western Aegean geobotanical zone, has a wider spreading than supposed until now.
