Chimantaea is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.
This genus is endemic to the Pantepui, a biogeographic province on the Guiana Highlands in Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil. The region is characterized by a pattern of about 50 tepuis, isolated tabletop mountains that arise from the sandstone plateau of the highlands. Tepuis are known for their biodiversity, especially their concentrations of endemic species, and most are still pristine, undisturbed ecosystems.
