I though this is N. x mixta. May I know what is the different between N. x mixta and N. x miranda?

N. xmiranda is a complex hybrid of Nepenthes maxima x (maxima x northiana). As true with nearly all Nepenthes hybrids, this one is a very vigorous grower and adapts well to a variety of growing conditions.
N. xmixta was created by Tivey in 1893. He crossed the difficult to grow N. northiana with N. maxima. Easier to grow than N. northiana.

But, how can we differentiate from the morphology?

That is something I must admit I do not know.  Let me check with other experts/gurus and get back to you on this.  |

Ok, below is the explaination from two experts...
The parentage of N. Miranda is a guess. The true parentage is proprietary information held by the originating nursery. Telling them apart can be tricky, but once you've seen both enough times there is a slight difference, especially in the upper traps.
The differences between these two plants are very subtle. I grow three different specimens of x Mixta: original 1892 cross, superba (male) and superba (female). I also grow x Miranda.
A listing of (observed) differences among my plants might include somewhat broader and more elliptical leaves and slightly narrower and more infundibular upper pitchers on the x Mixta as opposed to the xMiranda. I might also say that N. x Miranda seems to be a more vigorous plant.
