nepentas it is.. is it related to orchids somehow? When I saw them displayed it was with orchids also.

i think if i would have seen one of those, i would have posted it on the oddities forum, weird flower, nice pic though..
 
Weird tought.
It attracts the insects by the smell of a liquid inside of it, they come in and get drowned in the liquid.
