Crossword Puzzle Infos
Insect-eating plants are a unique group of carnivorous plants that have adapted to survive in nutrient-poor environments by supplementing their diet with insects. The most well-known insect-eating plants are the Sundew (Drosera), FLYTRAP (Dionaea muscipula), PITCHER (Nepenthes), Cobralily (Darlingtonia californica), and Bladderwort (Utricularia). Sundews have sticky tentacles that trap insects, Flytraps have hinged leaves that snap shut when triggered, Pitchers have deep, slippery tubes that lure insects in, Cobralilies have hooded pitchers that resemble cobras, and Bladderworts have tiny bladders that suck in prey. All of these plants rely on insects for sustenance and have evolved specialized trapping mechanisms to capture them.
