The helix... the bottom part is actually a shortened version of lobules...

And the whole lot is called the pinna:

If you know your ears anatomy - you could find helix, anti-helix, tragus, anti-tragus, inter tragic notch, darwins auricle, lobule and triangular fossa all in your pinna.

These are the main parts I had to lable for my audiology exams.

PS we had to remember about 25 parts of the cochlea

I always thought they were called the Spocks
