Carnivorous plants that don't require dormancy?

Can you please name me some carnivorous plants that don't require a dormancy period? I know that cape sundews don't and I'm thinking about getting one of those, but I'd like to know if there are any others? Thanks.

Drosera capensis, aliciae, spatulata, many other droseras, not sure about cephalotus but that's about it I think Also nepenthes don't need it as far as I know

All nepethes are tropical not requiring dormancy
There are a ton of dews as well. Cephalotus will usually be fine without it. Sometimes they do slow a bit in the winter.
Heliamphora is also without dormancy requirements.

If you are looking for specific dews I can list some or just ask if you find something you like.
