Welcome to TF! I'm horrible at IDing, but I can tell you that they are all Mexican butterworts. They're fine as they are. Provide good lighting, window sill or artificial is best. Keep slightly moist and open to the air. Mine did well, coloring up, when I had them at a window sill, with the screen window between them and direct sunlight.
 
lol are those black thing on the last picture bugs or dirt?

The one with the flower is agnata or an agnata hybrid, kind of hard to tell from the lighting of the pic and the bleached out look of the bloom.

I would suggest upping the light levels for them. Just off the top of my head.
 
You're welcome to wade through my plant album to see if anything looks enough like what you have:

P. moranensis, ehleresiae, and agnata come to mind, but I wouldn't bet the farm on them!

Hard to identified by myself.

please dont post that in someone elses plant ID threat
post your own.
just out of respect

Actually it is his thread; but it still might be a good idea to post a new thread with a different title so the Dionaea experts don't pass over this one.

Hi Pyro,thanks for your early tips. After few references, it close as P. xTina, a agnata hybrid.
