1.利用来自婆罗洲的6种猪笼草的新信息，检验了关于猪笼草内食物网结构模式的两种截然不同的假设。总体而言，预测网络将更加复杂，它们所包含的食物链将更长，它们离猪笼草物种多样性的中心越近，这一预测得到了支持。猪笼草是一种分布广泛的物种，具有独特的北婆罗尼亚形态，从猪笼草的形态和当地栖息地的偏好来看，明显可以解释这种反差的模式。对食物网模式的一般解释总是容易受到例外的影响，反映了自然历史的细微差别。
1. Two contrasting hypotheses concerning patterns in food web structure within pitchers of Nepenthes are tested using new information from six species of Nepenthes from Borneo.2. In general, predictions that webs will be more complex, and the food chains they contain will be longer, the closer they are to the centre of Nepenthes species diversity, are supported.3. For Nepenthes albomarginata, a widespread species with a distinctive north Bornean form, a contrasting pattern is evident explicable in terms of the morphology of the pitchers and local habitat preferences.4. General explanations for food web patterns will always be susceptible to exception, reflecting nuances of natural history.
