Nepenthes nigra is a tropical pitcher plant known from a number of mountains across Central Sulawesi, where it grows at elevations of 1,500–2,700 m (4,900–8,900 ft) above sea level.[2] The specific epithet nigra refers to the dark colouration of the pitchers and stem.[2][5] The species is closely related to N. hamata and N. tentaculata.[2]
