Heliamphora chimantensis (Chimantá Massif Marsh Pitcher) Wistuba, Carow & Harbarth 2002
perennial plant species in the sarraceniaceae family
Heliamphora chimantensis is a species of marsh pitcher plant endemic to the Chimantá Massif in Venezuela. It has been recorded from Apacará Tepui and Chimantá Tepui. The species is thought to be more closely related to Heliamphora tatei and Heliamphora neblinae than to other species found in the Gran Sabana region. Like other members of the genus Heliamphora, it survives in nutrient-poor environments by capturing and digesting insects using specialized pitcher-shaped leaves.
Heliamphora pulchella Wistuba, Carow, Harbarth & Nerz 2005
perennial plant species in the sarraceniaceae family
Heliamphora pulchella (Latin: pulchellus = pretty) is a species of marsh pitcher plant endemic to the Chimanta Massif and surrounding tepuis in Venezuela. It is one of the smallest species and closely related to H. minor.
Heliamphora folliculata (Aparaman Tepui-group Marsh Pitcher) Wistuba, Harbarth & Carow 2001
perennial plant species in the sarraceniaceae family
Heliamphora folliculata (Latin: folliculatus = having follicles) is a species of Marsh Pitcher Plant endemic to the Aparaman group of tepuis in Venezuela. It grows on all four mountains: Aparaman Tepui, Murosipan Tepui, Tereke Tepui and Kamakeiwaran Tepui. The nectar spoon of this species, which bears giant extrafloral nectaries within its internal chamber, may have evolved to prevent rain from washing away the energetically costly nectar produced by the plant.
Heliamphora sarracenioides (Sarracenioid Ptari Tepui Marsh Pitcher) Carow, Wistuba & Harbarth 2005
perennial plant species in the sarraceniaceae family
Heliamphora sarracenioides (Latin: Sarracenia = genus of North American pitcher plants, -oides = resembling) is a species of marsh pitcher plant endemic to Ptari Tepui in Bolívar state, Venezuela. Approximately 200 mature plants were observed in the type locality, however this site's true location and information regarding sympatric species has not been disclosed for conservation reasons. The species differentiates itself from others by the extremely wide pitcher lid, which resembles Sarracenia species. It is closest to H. heterodoxa and H. folliculata, from which it can be distinguished by
