Lentibulariaceae of Angola
Plants of the Lentibulariaceae family are small carnivorous plants, widely distributed in humid regions.
The family comprises 3 genera: Genlisea, Utricularia and Pinguicula, which occur in various aquatic and humid habitats, such as river banks, waterlogged areas and seasonally flooded areas. Each genus has a distinct type of highly specialized trap that it uses to capture and digest its prey, which in this case are small invertebrates and protozoa.
By request of a researcher, we photographed our specimens of lentibulariaceae from Angola, whose databasing will be completed with this project.
