Taxonomy

''Pitcairnia'' was established as a genus by Charles Louis L'Héritier de Brutelle in 1788. In 1870, ''Pepinia'' was established as a genus by Adolphe-Théodore Brongniart in a publication by Édouard André. ''Pepinia'' was reduced to a subgenus of ''Pitcairnia'' in 1881 by John Gilbert Baker, but elevated again to a genus in 1988, largely on the basis of the morphology of its seeds. The use of morphological characters to differentiate ''Pepinia'' from ''Pitcairnia'' was rejected in 1999; a view confirmed later by multiple molecular studies.
