Take a look at these fantastic jewel-like sundews.

看看这些奇异珠宝般茅膏花。

The Loureir's sundew has distinctive leaves covered in strikingly colorful glandular hair.

宽苞茅膏菜叶片上，长满色彩亮丽腺毛。

The sundew plant has long sticky leaves, which roll up after insects get stuck on them.

茅膏菜叶子又长又粘，昆虫被困在上边后，叶子就会卷起来。

The second victim faces off with the sticky sundew plant.

第二个受害者面茅膏菜。

The sundew’s tiny leaves are equipped with a viscous secretion called mucilage.

茅膏菜小叶子上有种叫做粘液粘性分泌物。

At over a meter tall, the sundew can catch bugs as big as dragonflies!

米高茅膏菜， 竟然能抓到蜻蜓那么大虫子！

An amateur researcher came across the massive sundews while exploring a mountain summit in Brazil.

位业余研究人员在探索巴西山峰时偶然发现了巨大茅膏菜。

These traps can be passive or active - for example, sundews have moving  sticky tentacles that react to contact with prey.

这些陷阱可以是被动， 也可以是主动——例如，茅膏菜有移动粘性触手， 可以在与猎物接触时做出反应。

And you might notice that the sundews very cleverly hold their flowers on tall, thin stems high above their murderous leaves to avoid trapping potential pollinators.

你们可能注意到了，茅膏花非常巧妙地把花托在又高又细茎上，高于那些有害叶子，以避免捕获潜在传粉者。

We'd also like to say thanks to our friends over  at Deep Look who provided us with some spectacular up-close footage of sundews.

我们还要感谢我们在 Deep Look 朋友们，他们为我们提供了些壮观茅膏菜近距离镜头。

It was a lucky find, too. This one peak is the only known place where this sundew grows, so it’s already critically endangered!

这也是个幸运发现。 这峰是已知唯生长这种茅膏菜地方，所以它已经极度濒危！

Insectivorous plants, like venus fly traps,   butterwort, sundew and pitcher plants, which we've talked about on the channel,   catch and digest bugs for nutrients.

我们在频道上讨论过食虫植物，如金星捕蝇器、蝴蝶草、太阳露和猪笼草，可以捕捉和消化虫子以获取营养。

For example, a key genetic change in the  evolution of carnivory took place in a common ancestor of Venus flytraps and sundews  that lived about 60 million years ago.

例如，食肉动物进化过程中个关键遗传变化发生在生活在大约 6000 万年前维纳斯捕蝇草和茅膏菜共同祖先身上。
