Ehm, there is a book called "Field guide to the Nepenthes of Sumatra", sadly I forgot where I put it. Hope can find it again and check this beautiful Nepenthes!

The shape of the pitcher,the hairy staminal column and the general markings are very suggestive of Nepenthes gymnamphora .

I'm leaning towards Nepenthes gymnamphora at the moment, but will have to keep investigating.
