Tepuipappus
Tepuipappus is a genus of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It includes six species endemic to southern Venezuela. The species are moderately- or simply-branched shrubs 0.3 to 3 meters tall. They are native to the Sipapo-Yutajé-Complex of tepuis, specifically occurring on Cerros Autana, Camani, Coro-Coro, Cuao, Guanay, Sipapo, Yaví, and Serrania Yutajé. Tepuis are flat-topped mountains with a flora and fauna distinct from the surrounding piedmont and lowlands.
John F. Pruski described the genus in 2023, and placed it in subtribe Verbesininae of tribe Heliantheae.
