Binata
Spathulata and Seeds
Brevifolia
Burmannii (seeds)
Capensis (seeds)
Capensis Wide Leaf
Natalensis
Adelae
Tokaiensis

Are any of these self pollinating?
 
I think only the New Zealand form of binata is sterile or it needs to be cross-pollinated with another binata. spatulata is self-pollinated and before the P-man comes

, it's spelled spatulata not spathulata and it shouldn't be capitalized since it's a species. All capensis forms are self-pollinated, so is Adelae and tokainsis also. The others ones I don't really know.
 
Most forms of Drosera binata are not self-pollinating, including the Australian forms.

D. adelae is very difficult to self-pollinate but will produce extremely small (almost none) quantities if given a helping hand.

All the other species listed are self-pollinating and will readily set seed without any help.
