{{DISPLAYTITLE:List of ''Sarracenia'' species and hybrids}}
The following is a list of species belonging to the [[North American pitcher plant]] genus (''[[Sarracenia]]''). For general information on North American pitcher plants, please see the [[Sarracenia|main article on ''Sarracenia'']].
==Species list==
[[Image:Sarracenia rubra ne.JPG|thumb|''Sarracenia rubra'' ssp. ''gulfensis'']]
*''[[Sarracenia alata]]'' : Pale pitcher plant
*''[[Sarracenia flava]]'' : Yellow pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''atropurpurea''
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''cuprea''
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''maxima''
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''ornata''
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''rubricorpora''
**''Sarracenia flava'' var. ''rugelii''
*''[[Sarracenia leucophylla]]'' : White pitcher plant
*''[[Sarracenia minor]]'' : Hooded pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia minor'' var. ''okefenokeensis''
*''[[Sarracenia oreophila]]'' : Green pitcher plant
*''[[Sarracenia psittacina]]'' : Parrot pitcher plant
*''[[Sarracenia purpurea]]'' : Purple pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia purpurea'' subsp. ''purpurea'' f. ''heterophylla''
**''Sarracenia purpurea'' subsp. ''venosa'' : Southern pitcher plant
***''Sarracenia purpurea'' subsp. ''venosa'' var. ''burkii''
****''Sarracenia purpurea'' subsp. ''venosa'' var. ''burkii'' f. ''luteola''
***''Sarracenia purpurea'' subsp. ''venosa'' var. ''montana''
*''[[Sarracenia rosea]]''
*''[[Sarracenia rubra]]'' : Sweet pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia rubra'' subsp. ''alabamensis'' : Alabama pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia rubra'' subsp. ''gulfensis'' : Gulf coast pitcher plant
**''Sarracenia rubra'' subsp. ''jonesii''
**''Sarracenia rubra'' subsp. ''wherryi'' : Red pitcher plant
''Sarracenia rubra'' is arguably a complex of several species and subspecies (including ''S. rubra (senso stricto)'', ''S. gulfensis'', ''S. wherryi,'' ''S. jonesii,'' and ''S. alabamensis'').
==Common hybrids==

[[Image:SFlavaXSRosea.JPG|thumb|Wild ''Sarracenia flava'' x ''S. rosea'' in NW Florida]]
These species are all popularly cultivated by carnivorous plant enthusiasts, and there are consequently a large number of hybrids and cultivars: ''S. × catesbaei'' being the very common cross between ''S. flava'' and ''S. purpurea''. Many of these hybrids occur naturally in the wild where special ranges overlap. The following is a list of named hybrids. Many of these names are relics of a time when these hybrids - when found in the wild - were thought to be species of their own.
''Sarracenia'' hybrids are completely fertile and can be crossed back with the primary species or other hybrids.
* ''Sarracenia × catesbaei'' = ''S. flava'' × ''S. purpurea''
* ''Sarracenia × moorei'' = ''S. flava'' × ''S. leucophylla''
* ''Sarracenia × popei'' = ''S. flava'' × ''S. rubra''
* ''Sarracenia × harperi'' = ''S. flava'' × ''S. minor''
* ''Sarracenia × alava'' = ''S. flava'' × ''S. alata''
* ''Sarracenia × mitchelliana'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. leucophylla''
* ''Sarracenia × exornata'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. alata''
* ''Sarracenia × chelsonii'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. rubra''
* ''Sarracenia × swaniana'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. minor''
* ''Sarracenia × courtii'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. psittacina''
* ''Sarracenia × pureophila'' = ''S. purpurea'' × ''S. oreophila''
* ''Sarracenia × readii'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. rubra''
* ''Sarracenia × farnhamii'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. rubra''
* ''Sarracenia × excellens'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. minor''
* ''Sarracenia × cantabridgensis'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. minor''
* ''Sarracenia × areolata'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. alata''
* ''Sarracenia × wrigleyana'' = ''S. leucophylla'' × ''S. psittacina''
* ''Sarracenia × ahlesii'' = ''S. alata'' × ''S. rubra''
* ''Sarracenia × rehderi'' = ''S. rubra'' × ''S. minor''
* ''Sarracenia × gilpini'' = ''S. rubra'' × ''S. psittacina''
* ''Sarracenia × formosa'' = ''S. minor'' × ''S. psittacina''
* ''Sarracenia × mineophila'' = ''S. minor'' × ''S. oreophila''
* ''Sarracenia × psittata'' = ''S. psittacina'' × ''S. alata''
