Nepenthes × merrilliata (pronounced /nəˈpɛnθiːz ˌmɛrɪlɪˈɑːtə/, a blend of merrilliana and alata) is a natural hybrid involving N. alata and N. merrilliana. Like its two parent species, it is endemic to the Philippines, but limited by the natural range of N. merrilliana to Mindanao and its offshore islands.
