Peperomia perglandulosa

The type specimen where collected near El Valle de Antón, Panama at an altitude of 1,100 meters (3,600 ft). Peperomia perglandulosa is a creeping, succulent epiphytic herb with a stem 2 mm thick, densely covered with red hairs, rooting at the nodes, with internodes 2–5 cm or more long. The alternate leaves are deltoid-ovate with rounded apex and truncate base, mostly subpeltate with the petiole attached 1–2 mm from the margin, measuring 1.5–3 cm wide by 1.5–3 cm long. They are palmately 5-nerved with slender, obscure laterals, nearly hairless above, covered with fine hairs beneath at least along the midrib, with margin densely fringed with hairs and a zone of submarginal hairs on the upper surface. The leaves dry rather thick and opaque, densely and conspicuously red-glandular-dotted on both sides with comparatively large glands. The petiole is 1.5–4 cm long, densely red-hairy and sparsely red-glandular. The leaf-opposed spikes are 2 mm thick by 7 cm long, densely flowered, on peduncles 2.5 cm long that are densely red-hairy with scattered red glands and bracteate near the middle. The floral bracts are round-peltate, conspicuously and densely red-glandular. The ovary is ellipsoidal, red-glandular, sharply beaked, with stigma anterior at the base of the beak. …
