About the Image

The federally endangered green pitcher plant (Sarracenia oreophila Sarraceniaceae) in flower. Thirty-five populations of this insectivorous perennial species remain in the southeastern U.S. Allozyme diversity is low in this species; small populations and geographically disjunct populations maintain the least genetic diversity.
