Los Testigos, also known as the Aparamán range, is a mountain chain in Bolívar, Venezuela.〔Huber, O. (1995). Geographical and physical features. In: P.E. Berry, B.K. Holst & K. Yatskievych (eds.) ''Flora of the Venezuelan Guayana. Volume 1. Introduction.'' Missouri Botanical Garden Press, St. Louis. pp. 1–61.〕 It consists of four rather small tepuis, forming a bridge between the giant Auyán-tepui to the west and Ptari-tepui to the east. The four major peaks of Los Testigos are (west to east): Aparamán-tepui (2,100 m), Murisipán-tepui (2,350 m), Tereke-yurén-tepui (1,900 m), and Kamarkawarai-tepui (2,400 m), the latter three sharing a common slope area.〔 There however remains some confusion in the literature regarding the names of these peaks. The Los Testigos chain has a total summit area of around and an estimated slope area of (the collective slope area of the three eastern tepuis being around , with the isolated Aparamán-tepui contributing a further ).〔 The chain is situated entirely within the bounds of Canaima National Park.〔 Torres, I.N. & D.D. Martín (November 2007). Mejorando Nuestra Herencia.〕 In line with and to the west of the Los Testigos chain lies the Los Hermanos massif, which consists of two upland peaks: Amaruay-tepui and Padapué-tepui. Both massifs are located northeast of the Catholic mission at Kamarata.〔 __NOTOC__ ==See also== * Distribution of ''Heliamphora'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Los Testigos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
