	Darlingtonia - Home page (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Darlingtonia Californica, (commonly known as a Cobra Lily, because of its resemblance to a cobra about to strike), has a trapping mechanism similar to the Sarracenia.
		However in the case of Darlingtonia the plant incorporates a 180° twist within the stem, so the mouth of the pitcher always faces away from the centre of the plant.
		Darlingtonia is native to the mountains of North California and Southern Oregon in the USA.

	Darlingtonia californica (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Darlingtonia californica is restricted to the western United States in southwestern Oregon and northern California in or near mountain springs or bogs, to 2500 m altitude (Mathew 1994).
		Darlingtonia is found in scattered sphagnum bogs along the coast of Oregon, with a disjunct population extending inland primarily on serpentine soils across southern Curry County to western Josephine County, Oregon.
		Darlingtonia grows in two kinds of habitat: Sphagnum bogs along the coast which are usually in the flat deflation areas behind dunes, often on the marsh margins of small lakes; and inland in serpentine bogs which usually occur in seepage areas on hillsides.

	Darlingtonia californica: Correcting Errors Perpetuated in the Literature by Linda Freeman
		While Darlingtonia may, in fact, have been limited to these slopes in the earlier study, that is no reason to believe that Darlingtonia is confined to south- and southwest-facing slopes throughout its range.
		The average concentration of calcium in river water is 13.4 to15 mg/l and the average concentration of magnesium is 3.35 to 4.1 (Hem, 1989).
		Darlingtonia is frequently, but not exclusively, found on serpentine soils, which tend to have high concentrations of magnesium and low amounts of calcium.

		Darlingtonia ( Darlingtonia californica), also called the California Pitcher plant or Cobra Lily, is a carnivorous plant in the family Sarraceniaceae.
		It is native to California and Oregon, growing in bogs and seeps.
		In 1853 it was described by John Torrey, who named the genus Darlingtonia after a friend.

		Darlingtonia bogs (or seeps) are scattered throughout northwestern California and southwestern Oregon, all the way down to sea level, with outliers in the northern Sierra Nevada.
		Darlingtonias have no enzymes, relying on bacteria to break down the insect carcasses so the plant can absorb the nutrients they contain.
		It's an elegant killing machine, but from another perspective Darlingtonia can be seen as a patchwork of what evolutionary biologists call "exaptations," a term coined by Stephen Jay Gould and Elizabeth Vrba to describe features that originally arose in one context but were later co-opted for use in another.

		Darlingtonia inflorescences are similar in plan to those of Sarracenia.
		At first I thought the variant Darlingtonia plants were such floral mutants, but inspections of their growth crowns revealed a complete absence of red pigmentation in the leaf shoot apexes and developing pitchers.
		Since Darlingtonia plants do not have much red coloration in their pitchers, late-season variant plants do not look much different from normal specimens and any future surveys for variant plants must be conducted during the flowering season.

		Mostly Darlingtonia grow in boggy areas which have a constant flow of fresh cold water and pine forests of Redwood and Spruce.
		The common name given to Darlingtonia is Cobra Lily as the modified leaves form upright pitchers which are hooded and the front part of the leaf is divided in to what appears to be a forked tongue.
		Once the insect hits the back of the pitchers hood it usually is stunned enough to drop down in to the base of the pitcher where it will eventually die and be decomposed by bacteria rather than the more usual enzymes.

		Darlingtonia pitcher plants are found only in a very small spot on our planet.
		As much as I would love to share the locations of other populations with everyone, I was informed that there are still way too many clowns out there who would dig up and make a lousy buck off these rare plants...thus I had to swore to secrecy.
		This is really interesting as it has always been the belief that Darlingtonias required frigid waters for it's roots in order for the plant to survive.

	Oregon: Coastal park a predator plant refuge - at worldbookers.com
		Darlingtonia Wayside is a preserve for a threatened plant that traps and eats bugs -- the cobra lily.
		Darlingtonia Wayside is not as well-known as the coast's rocky turnouts and vistas, but it is the only state park in Oregon devoted to the protection of one plant -- the Darlingtonia californica, a type of pitcher plant that lives off both photosynthesis and the digestion of insects.
		Habitats like Darlingtonia Wayside are fast disappearing due to changes in water flow caused by commercial development, making the plant's protection even more important, Baker said.

		Although the distribution of Darlingtonia is somewhat similar to the distribution of serpentine rocks in these areas, they aren't identical at all.
		Darlingtonia doesn't appear restricted to the serpentine sites, but it does appear to grow well in areas rich in heavy metals.
		Darlingtonia, like other carnivorous plants, grow in water that is poor in nitrogen, and the soft parts of insects are rich in nitrogen and can supply that nutritional need to the plant.
