The green plants which obtain their food partly from insects are called insectivorous plants. Example -Pitcher plant, Sundew plant, venus fly-trap plant etc.

Insectivorous plants are carnivorous plants that eat insects. They are green and can photosynthesize to produce some of their food, but they also eat insects to obtain nitrogen for growth. Nitrogen is a key component of proteins, nucleic acids, and chlorophyll, which plants use for photosynthesis.
