Peperomia weberbaueri |
Peperomia weberbaueri is a species of Peperomia plant native to Peru. Some specimens can be found at an altitude of 1600 m in the Amazon.[1][2][3]
The species' epithet weberbaueri came from the surname of German naturalist and botanist Augusto Weberbauer. Weberbauer contributed to the exploration of new plant species of Peru and Andes.[4]
