Darklight Posted December 22, 2002 I don't have a taxonomy book, and all my searches end up with so much unrelated garbage on them I'm lost. So if anyone has any handy taxonomic references What's the nearest relative of Pimenta dioica , aka pimento, allspice, Jamaican pepper, family Myrtaceae? And can anyone recommend me a good reference outlining the inter-relationship between plant species? One with big diagrams would be healthy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Auxin Posted December 22, 2002 You fooled me. If noone responds you should title the post 'allspice nearest relatives?' For most people pimento means Capsicum annuum cv. Pimento. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest reville Posted December 23, 2002 How about the following species as loosely related Guava - all species Psidium sp Cloves - and Other Eugenia sp Lillypilly, Roseapple - all species Szyzygium Feijoa - Feijoa sellowiana (?) If i have assumed Pimento is in this group incorrectly please let me know R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
