Peperomia villosa is a species of herb from the genus Peperomia.[1] First specimens were collected by William Jameson. It was first described by Casimir de Candolle and published in the book "Journal of Botany, British and Foreign 4: 135. 1866.".[2] Its etymology came from "villous", which means long soft hair.
