Nepenthes barcelonae is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Philippine island of Luzon.[1] It is known from a single mountain in the Sierra Madre range of Aurora Province, where it grows in stunted submontane forest.[1]
The specific epithet barcelonae honours Julie F. Barcelona, who discovered the species in February 2014 together with Danilo Tandang and Pieter B. Pelser.[1][2][3][4]
