  1. genus pinguicula

    The genus Pinguicula, also known as Butterworts, is a group of carnivorous plants under the family Lentibulariaceae, native to the Northern Hemisphere. This genus contains around 100 species that utilize sticky, glandular leaves to lure, trap, and digest insects in order to supplement the poor mineral nutrition they obtain from the environment. Some species also exhibit seasonal heterophylly, where they produce non-carnivorous leaves during the winter. Pinguicula plants can thrive in various habitats like wetlands, alpine meadows, and rock crevices depending on the species.
