He couldn\u2019t prove it then, but more than 150 years later, scientists have shown that Darwin\u2019s suspicions were correct.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8485\">Todd Blanche advances toward confirmation, paving way for reenergized Justice Department investigations<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            Darwin proposed in 1875 that Saxifraga rotundifolia and S. umbrosa were insect-eaters; their hairlike structures called glandular trichomes ooze a sticky goo and resemble hairs found in some carnivorous plants. However, to be carnivorous, a plant must lure, trap and consume insects, and Darwin\u2019s experiments with Saxifraga plants couldn\u2019t conclusively demonstrate that the plants fit the bill.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            In a study published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications, researchers tested Darwin\u2019s hypothesis by experimenting with Saxifraga candelabrum, a flowering mountain plant that grows at high altitudes on the southern part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and in the Hengduan Mountains in China\u2019s Yunnan and Sichuan provinces.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Through chemical analysis, scientists showed how the plants attracted tiny gnats with tempting odors and then digested trapped prey using an enzyme called phosphatase. Isotope labeling \u2014 a technique for tagging forms of an element with different atomic weights \u2014 highlighted the transfer of the nutrient nitrogen-15 from insect prey to the plants that dissolved them, indicating a direct path from trapping to digestion.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Genetic analysis then clarified S. candelabrum\u2019s relationship to other sticky carnivorous plants, revealing shared genes linked to traits such as prey attraction, digestion and nutrient absorption. When the scientists expanded their investigation to include other types of traps, they found dozens of genes across different plant groups related to digesting insect remains. This data could help botanists identify other plants that have been hiding their appetite for insects in plain sight, said senior study author Hang Sun, a professor and director of the Kunming Institute of Botany at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cSome species of the plants previously only known to bear sticky glandular hairs or trap insects incidentally may actually have undiscovered digestive and nutrient absorption capabilities,\u201d Sun told CNN in an email. \u201cCarnivory is likely far more widely distributed among angiosperms\u201d \u2014 or flowering plants \u2014 \u201cthan previously believed, and new carnivorous plant lineages may be discovered in the future.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"04 carnivorous plant underground discovered\" class=\"wp-image-8490\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/c20e228a73184d2789d78f03e6b10fd7.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Martin Dan\u010d\u00e1k<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Carnivorous plant that traps prey underground is the 1st of its kind to be discovered<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div>2  min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            At least 350,000 species of flowering plants exist, of which more than 750 species are known to be carnivorous. Different styles of carnivory evolved independently in 14 plant families \u2014 a process called convergent evolution \u2014 and the study provides important new information about this intriguing lifestyle, said botanist Susan Myers, horticulture and conservation director at the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. Myers was not involved in the new research.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThe study design, including identifying the necessary morphology and digestive enzymes, and especially tracing the labeled nitrogen, was brilliant,\u201d she said in an email. \u201cWhat Darwin surmised from observation and inference, these researchers confirmed with modern technology.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Trapping then eating\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            Study coauthor Douglas Soltis, a distinguished professor at the Florida Museum of Natural History and at the department of biology at the University of Florida, has investigated the Saxifragaceae family for more than four decades, and he always wondered if some of these plants might be carnivorous, he told CNN in an email.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cMany members of the family to which Saxifraga belongs have sticky glandular hairs and you often see insects stuck on them,\u201d Soltis said. But even if its hairs trap insects, the plant isn\u2019t necessarily digesting them, he added. Hairs can also be defensive structures for protection against plant-eaters.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8481\">A SpaceX rocket is about to crash into the moon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            Their work began as Darwin\u2019s did: by observing the plants and the insects that got trapped, in the field and under controlled conditions. Most of the mature plants that the researchers observed captured dozens of insects, with up to 70 gnats collecting on their sticky branches. The researchers found that the flowers\u2019 scent lured their prey, using compounds previously identified as attractive to insects. Larger flies that pollinated the flowers were not trapped by the hairs, suggesting that only ineffective pollinators were caught.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Saxifraga candelabrum uses odors to attract insects and then digests the prey.\" class=\"wp-image-8491\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/98cf51dd214aa5ac6724afdf60e80543.jpeg\" width=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/98cf51dd214aa5ac6724afdf60e80543.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/98cf51dd214aa5ac6724afdf60e80543-200x300.jpeg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>Saxifraga candelabrum uses odors to attract insects and then digests the prey.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Xin-Jian Zhang<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            Insect prey is full of nitrogen, and in many types of carnivorous plants, a common driver of evolution is life in habitats where soil is naturally nitrate-poor, Soltis said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThese plants can photosynthesize \u2014 they can make their own food.

After Darwin saw the star-shaped Madagascar orchid Angraecum sesquipedale, with a nectar tube measuring 11.8 inches (30 centimeters) long, he wrote in 1862 that it could only be pollinated by a \u201chuge moth with a wonderfully long proboscis,\u201d though he had never seen such an insect. When he died in 1882, the mystery pollinator was still unknown. But Darwin was vindicated in 1903 with the discovery of the Madagascar moth Xanthopan morganii praedicta and its 12-inch strawlike tongue (the insect was reclassified in 2021 as Xanthopan praedicta).\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            By picking up where Darwin left off, the new findings serve as a reminder that scientific research \u201cis an ongoing relay pursuit spanning different eras,\u201d Sun said. \u201cIt allows us to truly appreciate the continuous academic inheritance of fundamental research in the field of plant evolution passed down from generation to generation.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Identifying S. candelabrum as carnivorous also reminds us that plants are full of surprises and that there is much to still be discovered about them, Myers said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cWe are still barely scratching the surface of botanical knowledge,\u201d she said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n    Mindy Weisberger is a science writer and media producer whose work has appeared in Live Science, Scientific American and How It Works magazine.
