Nepenthes parvula is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Cape York Peninsula of Queensland, Australia.[2]
It is the fourth Nepenthes species recorded from the continent and its third endemic species. Nepenthes parvula is closely related to the three other Australian Nepenthes species: N. mirabilis, N. rowaniae and N. tenax.
The specific epithet parvula refers to the diminutive size of mature plants.[2][3]
