Pinguicula, commonly known as butterworts, exhibit a carnivorous mode of nutrition. They primarily capture and digest small insects and other arthropods using their sticky, glandular leaves. This adaptation allows them to supplement their nutrient intake, particularly nitrogen, from the prey they capture, which is essential for their growth in nutrient-poor environments.
