This species, which is here sustained on the authority of Mr. Kidley, who knows 
well the Malayan Utricularias in the field, does not differ very greatly from 77. racemosa, 
Wall. , not so much indeed as does the variety Jilicaulis previously described. It 
matters little whether the three forms are considered specifically distinct or are 
treated as manifestations of one protean species. A drawing by Mr. Ridley shows 
pink flowers.
