Piperaceae

The Piperaceae, also known as the pepper family, are a large family of flowering plants. The group contains roughly 3,600 currently accepted species in 13 genera. The vast majority of peppers can be found within the two main genera: ''Piper'' (2000 species) and ''Peperomia'' (1600 species).〔Stevens, P. F. (2001 onwards). ''Angiosperm Phylogeny Website'' Version 9, June 2008 http://www.mobot.org/mobot/research/apweb/welcome.html〕
Members of the Piperaceae may be small trees, shrubs, or herbs. The distribution of this group is best described as pantropical.
The most well-known species is ''Piper nigrum'', which yields most peppercorns that are used as spices, including black pepper, although its relatives in the family include many other spices.〔Ravindran PN. 2000 Black Pepper, ''Piper nigrum''. Harwood Acadiic, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. 553 p.〕
==Etymology==
The name Piperaceae is likely derived from the Sanskrit term ''pippali'', which was used to describe long peppers (like those of ''Piper longum'').
