	"Coastal Carnivores" Carnivorous Plants: Cultivation Tips: Dionaea
		Dionaea muscipulaor, as it is popularly known, the venus flytrap (vft) is probably the best known carnivorous plant in cultivation, with millions being propagated in tissue culture and sold on the mass market every year.
		Unkown to most people, the native habitat of the venus flytrap is in a small area of North Carolina, where it inhabits boggy areas that can often become flooded in the spring, and relatively dry in the summer.
		There is only one species, Dionaea muscipulaalthough there are several different cultivated varieties (cultivars), such as 'Akai Ryu' (all red), 'Clamshell' (no cilia), and 'All green' (no red pigment inside the traps).

	Essay: The Effect of Temperature on the Speed of Response of Dionaea muscipula - Coursework.Info
		The Effect of Temperature on the Speed of Response of Dionaea muscipula AIM: The aim of this experiment is to establish whether a relationship between temperature and response times of Venus Flytraps exists.
		However, upon investigation, it was discovered that the Venus Flytrap would be better suited to doing studies on response times as the nastic plants required were not available in Queensland.
		Dionaea muscipula, common name Venus Flytraps, were placed in various temperatures and artificially stimulated, through the use of human hair, to respond.

		In nature Dionaea is found in grasslands growing under short-stalked sedge and in scattered marshlands.
		Dionaea reduces vegetative growth and changes the shape of its leaves during the winter.
		These vary in overall coloration (all red-purple, yellow-orange and all green forms), various types of forms (only winter form, only summer form), the shape of the rosette of leaves (robust and dwarfish forms, etc.), the coloration of the traps (different red colorations), and the shape of the marginal spines (short, long, and so forth).

		The steel trap of Dionaea is hardly as powerful as the ones set by trappers for wolves, beavers or bears, but it is just as effective at catching its own small prey.
		That is, there must be a sudden change in the water pressure in the cells – the cells of the bottom part of the midrib, that is. Now we know that it is not nearly so simple, nor is our old explanation valid, although the lower midrib cells do indeed take in more water.
