近些年来,许多报刊杂志不断刊登有关吃人植物的报道,有的说它在南美洲亚马逊河流域的原始森林中,也有的说在印度尼西亚的爪哇岛上时有发现。这些报道对各种不同的吃人植物的形态、习性和地点作了详细的描述,结果使许多人相信,世界上的确存在这样一类可怕的植物。但十分遗憾的是,在所有发表的有关吃人植物的报道中,谁也没有拿出吃人植物吃人的直接证据——照片或标本,也没有确切地指出它是哪一个科,或哪一个属的植物。为此,许多植物学家对吃人植物是否存在的问题产生了怀疑。 In recent years, many newspapers and magazines have continued to publish reports about cannibalism. Some say it is in the primeval forests of the Amazon basin in South America, while others say they have been found on the Indonesian island of Java. These reports gave a detailed description of the morphology, habits, and locations of various cannibalism plants. As a result, many people believe that there are indeed such terrible plants in the world. However, it is regrettable that none of the published reports on cannibalism have shown direct evidence of eating humans and plants—photographs or specimens, nor did they specify exactly which branch it is, or where A genus of plants. For this reason, many botanists have questioned the existence of eating plants.
