to the exclusion of Cerro Aracamuni and Cerro Avispa. Four species are native to this area, all local endemics: H. ceracea, H. hispida, H. neblinae, and H. parva, though only the range of H. neblinae extends to the two northern cerro-plateaus. No Heliamphora are found on the small granitic outcrop of Cerro Aratitiyope (1700 m) to the north of the Neblina Massif. Duida group This area consists of the giant Cerro Duida as well as the much smaller Cerro Huachamacari to the northwest and Cerro Marahuaca to the northeast. Cerro Duida and Cerro Marahuaca share a common base and together form the Duida–Marahuaca Massif, while Cerro Huachamacari is derived from a separate base. The uneven plateau of Cerro Duida is heavily inclined, rising north to south from around 1300–1400 m to a maximum of 2358 m. But the highest point of the massif, at 2832 m, is found on Cerro Marahuaca, this being the second-highest mountain of the entire Guayana Shield (after Cerro de la Neblina). Cerro Marahuaca actually consists of two summit plateaus, the slightly larger northern one going by the Yekwana Amerindian name Fufha or Huha (). The southern plateau () is known by two local names; its northwestern edge is called Fuif (or Fhuif), whereas its southeastern portion is called Atahua'shiho (or Atawa Shisho). A massive ridge known as Cerro Petaca () rises to at least 2700 m just west of these two plateaus. The third major tepui of the Duida group, Cerro Huachamacari, is comparatively low, reaching only 1900 m. Two species are recognised from this complex and found nowhere else: H. macdonaldae and H. tatei. A third described species, H. tyleri, is universally treated as a synonym of H. tatei. Eastern range The eastern range of the genus includes the vast majority of species. It is largely encompassed by Bolívar state, Venezuela, but also extends into portions of western Guyana and northern Brazil. Angasima and Upuigma The imposing peaks of Angasima Tepui (2250 m) and Upuigma Tepui (2100 m) lie south of the much larger Chimantá Massif, from which they are separated by the Río Aparurén valley. Three Heliamphora species are native to Angasima Tepui: the undescribed endemic H. sp. 'Angasima Tepui' and two species shared with the nearby Chimantá Massif (H. huberi and H. pulchella). Only the range of H. pulchella extends to the isolated peak of Upuigma Tepui. Aprada Massif The Aprada Massif consists of Aprada Tepui (2500 m) and the smaller Araopán Tepui (2450 m) to the east. A steep, semi-circular ridge connects these two summits. The Aprada Massif lies northwest of the much larger Chimantá Massif, with which it shares its two native species: H. exappendiculata and H. pulchella. Auyán Massif The Auyán Massif is dominated by Auyán Tepui, a vast U-shaped plateau incised from the north by a deep central valley. It rises from 1600 m in the northwest to 2450 m in the southeast, where the world's highest uninterrupted waterfall, Angel Falls, is located. While Auyán Tepui is one of the largest tepuis, it hosts only a single Heliamphora species, H. minor, of which two varieties are recognised. Both varieties are present on Auyán Tepui itself and on the comparatively tiny Cerro La Luna (1650 m), located off its northern flank. Neither has been recorded from nearby Cerro El Sol (1750 m), otherwise known as Wei or Uei Tepui (). The southernmost component of the Auyán Massif is the 1950 m high Uaipán Tepui or Waipán Tepui (), which likewise has no recorded Heliamphora. Chimantá Massif The Chimantá Massif is a huge, highly fragmented complex with a total summit
