These are also known as Carnivorous (Meat-eating) plants. Several types are native to the U.S. Includilng the famous Venus Flytrap. They indeed eat insects and possibly could trap very small vermin-like mammals.
the non-green plants which live on other living organisms and obtain food from them are called parasitic plants
Only parasitic plants contain no chlorophyll, so aren't green - such as orobanchs (broomrapes). None completely fit the definition as autotrophs as they do not rely on simple inorganic compounds as nutrients.
Some plants feed on insects and other small animals because the soil they grow in is very poor. They gain additional nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous from the insects and animals they consume.
Animals which eat plants (which are also living things) are called herbivores. Animals which feed mainly on other animals are termed carnivores. Some animals specialise in eating insects and they are termed insectivores and animals which have a mixed diet that can include meat and plants are called omnivores. There are also some plants which can ingest small mammals, birds or insects, these are usually referred to as insectivorous or carnivorous plants.
Angiosperms are seed plants that produce flowers enclosed within a carpel. Angiosperms that live off other plants are called parasitic angiosperms.

the non-green plants which live on other living organisms and obtain food from them are called parasitic plants
they derive some or most of their plants by trapping and consuming animals mainly insects of pitcher plant,mosera etc.
Heartworm is an example of a parasitic nematode. Hookworms, pinworms, and trichina worm are also examples of parasitic nematodes. Parasitic nematodes affect plants as well, such as the pine wood nematode.

There are several different insectivorous insects. Some of these include dragonflies, hornets, ladybugs, and praying mantises. Being insectivorous means that they eat insects.

A parasite lives on or in a host, which it depends on for survival. This relationship can be simply parasitic, where the host does not benefit from the parasite. This relationship may also be symbiotic, in which both the parasite and the host benefit.
