Always fascinating: The "Predator Sundew"
in action. A minute that's worth it. Catapults in Pygmyland Amazing
results: Pygmy sundews capture minute prey like springtails with rapid
catapult action. Our experiments for this film (English subtitles) show
that Drosera glanduligera is not longer the only sundew with a catapult-flypaper trapping mechanism. Also the snap-tentacles of several pygmy Drosera
act with the speed of a closing Venus flytrap and fling walking prey
from the periphery of the plant onto its sticky leaf. Therefore they
turn out to be actually comparable with the amazing Drosera glanduligera,
however, their catapults are multifunctional and possess a mechanism to
avoid unessential movement: Like the Venus Flytrap. Under our
microscope we examined 22 Drosera and received surprising results.

Award of the Robert Bosch Stiftung: for a Dionaea project in Berlin. YouTube Dinosaurs "Gezeitenwechsel im Hochharz" a book by Christa Hartmeyer The catapultflypaper trap in the public The amazing catapulting of prey by the catapult-flypaper trap was our key-issue at the Regio-Messe Lörrach (trade fair) 2014. In September the famous technology writer Volker Arzt presented it for the first time on TV (Planet Wissen, ARD). The amazing "prey flinging" of a catapult-flypaper trap was for the first time presented to a wide public in the "CP-Cinema" at the Regio Messe Lörrach 2014. Byblis is motile ... and Lindernia? A highlight for CP-enthusiasts! In 2018, first videos by Dr. Gregory Allan (GB) on Facebook showed an active motion of Byblis trichomes.
However, the topic literature describes the carnivorous genus as
immobile. To review that behavior, we made own time lapse shots with a
microscope that turned out to be surprisingly even for ourselves.
They confirm clearly that the unicellular trichome stalks show an active motion down to the leaf surface after being touched by prey. Therefore, we looked up again the work of some CP pioneers like Charles Darwin (1875) or C.A. Fenner (1904), and included their findings and assumptions on Byblis complemented with excerpts from Dr. Gregory Allan's first shots (with his kind permission). We would like to express our thanks to Dr. Gregory Allan, Dr. Jan Schlauer as well as Holger und Anja Hennern for their kind support during the making of this film.
