I don't know why you started this poll but you sure picked strange contenders.
Triphyophyllum peltatum is rare in cultivation but not in the wild.
Nepenthes attenboroughii is not common but certainly not on top of the endangered list
Pinguicula mexicana doesn't exist, it is incorrect name for P. moranensis one of the most cultivated CP's in the world.
Utricularia multifida is a weed in the wild
Aldrovanda vesiculosa is getting locally rarer but still occurs accross the planet
Byblis gigantea is getting rare, but not extremely so
and Nepenthes lowii won't make the top 20 of endangered species either.
The only sensible answer therefore would be other and that covers a lot of ground.

Agreed, P. ionantha, N. clipeata, Drosera regia, etc. would have made much better choices, and I'm sure there are even rarer species out there....

Up to you, but so far I see no votes probably for the reasons I stated.
