Take a look at these fantastic jewel-like sundews.

看看这些奇异的珠宝般的茅膏花。

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

宽苞茅膏的叶片上，长满色彩亮丽的腺毛。

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

茅膏的叶子又长又粘，昆虫被困上边后，叶子就会卷起来。

The second victim faces off with the sticky sundew plant.

第二个受害者面对黏糊糊的茅膏。

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

茅膏的小叶子上有一种叫做粘液的粘性分泌物。

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

一米高的茅膏， 竟然能抓到蜻蜓那么大的虫子！

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

一位业余研究探索巴西的一座山峰时偶然发现了巨大的茅膏。

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的， 也可以是主动的——例如，茅膏有移动的粘性触手， 可以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又高又细的茎上，高于那些有害的叶子，以避免捕获潜的传粉者。

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 Deep Look 的朋友们，他们为我们提供了一些壮观的茅膏近距离镜头。

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

这也是一个幸运的发现。 这一峰是已知唯一生长这种茅膏的地方，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.

我们道上讨论过的食虫植物，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的一个关键遗传变化发生生活大约 6000 万年前的维纳斯捕蝇草和茅膏的共同祖先身上。
