Nepenthes izumiae /nɪˈpɛnθiːz iˈzuːmiaɪ/ is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Sumatra, where it grows in montane forest at 1,700–1,900 m above sea level. It appears to be most closely related to N. lingulata and N. singalana.
The specific epithet izumiae honours Izumi Davis, wife of Troy Davis, one of the describing authors.
