Peperomia turialvensis is a species of epiphyte in the genus Peperomia.[1] It was first described by Casimir de Candolle and published in the book "Linnaea 37: 380–381. 1871-1873[1872]. (Jul 1872)".[2] It primarily grows on wet tropical biomes.[1] The species name came from Turrialva, where first specimens of this species were collected.[2] It may be a synonym of Peperomia rhexiifolia.[2][3]
