大豬籠草

大豬籠草（學名：Nepenthes maxima）是一種廣佈於蘇拉威西、新幾內亞和摩鹿加群島的熱帶食蟲植物。其也可能存在於沃沃尼島。
大豬籠草被歸入“大豬籠草系”中，其中還包括博世豬籠草（N. boschiana）、陳氏豬籠草（N. chaniana）、附生豬籠草（N. epiphytica）、艾瑪豬籠草、法薩豬籠草（N. faizaliana）、暗色豬籠草（N. fusca）、扎克里豬籠草（N. zakriana ）、N. dactylifera 、克洛斯豬籠草（N. klossii）、寬唇豬籠草（N. platychila）、窄葉豬籠草（N. stenophylla）、柔毛豬籠草(N. mollis) 和佛氏豬籠草（N. vogelii）。
常見於蘇拉威西的某些變型常具有明顯波浪狀的葉片。個別極端個體的葉片翼即使下延至下部整個節間，但其仍可能呈高度波浪狀。這種波浪狀的葉片是由於葉緣細胞生長造成的，由於其葉片質薄，從而導致其葉片呈波浪狀以降低其應力勢能。
雖然柯蒂斯豬籠草（N. curtisii）為該物種的異名，但其也被用於指代其他許多栽培種。

**形態特徵**
大豬籠草捕蟲籠的形態特徵多變。捕蟲籠可為純綠色或帶斑點，少數斑點眾多，幾乎為黑色。不同變型的唇也存在差異，產自新幾內亞的變型其唇較寬。

2009年，一種產自婆娑湖的栽培品種被命名為婆娑湖大豬籠草（Nepenthes maxima‘Lake Poso’），也就是當前園藝市場上廣為流通的“迷你大豬籠草”。
