"Nepenthes macrophylla" was originally described in 1987 as a subspecies of "N. edwardsiana" by Johannes Marabini. It was later elevated to species status by Matthew Jebb and Martin Cheek. This interpretation was supported by Charles Clarke, who noted that "N. edwardsiana" and "N. villosa" "have more in common" than "N. edwardsiana" and "N. macrophylla".
