Planta Carnivora is a biannual periodical and the official publication of The Carnivorous Plant Society of the United Kingdom.[1][2] Typical articles include matters of horticultural interest, field reports, and news of plant discoveries. The journal was established in 1980[3] and was called The Carnivorous Plant Society Journal until 2009; the following year it was combined with the society's newsletter to form Planta Carnivora. Issues are published in spring and autumn.[2]
