Nepenthes hemsleyana is a tropical pitcher plant found only in Borneo, specifically in peat swamp and heath forests below 200m above sea level. It was named after English botanist William Botting Hemsley and was first collected in 1877. Its taxonomic history has been confusing, with some experts mistakenly identifying it as a different species. However, it was formally described in 1908 and later recognized as a distinct species from Nepenthes rafflesiana. N. hemsleyana is elongated in all aspects and has unique features such as round tendrils and a well-developed waxy zone in its upper pitchers. It is known to grow in Brunei and coastal regions of northern Sarawak, but its range may be larger than currently known. This species has been observed to form natural hybrids with other Nepenthes species and has a unique relationship with Hardwicke's woolly bats, which roost in its pitchers and provide nitrogen input in return. The bats prefer N. hemsleyana pitchers over those of other species and are aided by the plant's unique structures and high frequency vocalizations.
