_D.roraimae_ (=D.montana var.roraimae) does grow there and it is the
species most frequently documented from the tepuis in E Ven.. On the
tepuis, this species tends to form stems covered by decayed, reflexed
leaves. In the adjacent plains the same species forms rather normal flat
rosettes. I do not have the mentioned picture here so cannot tell more.

Kind regards
Jan
