Abstract

The possible presence of C. baccatum in Cuba has been reported from the XVIII century to final of XX century. The revision of literature that referred and described the species and cultivars of C. baccatum were made, and also examined the morphologic identified description of these cultivares that were ex situ conserved and the revisión the samples of herbariums. Investigations came true at home gardens and markets with the purpose to obtain information about the possible introduction, production and management of these cultivars. That suppose C baccatum is not a native species neither naturalized in the Island, the confusion could be well-founded in the missed classification of the taxon Pimpiniche, or in the similitude of tonality of the corolla with another species of the complex. An updated the taxonomic classification of 13 cultivars that had been reported like C. baccatum, six belong of C frutescens, four of C annuum and three of C chinense. C. baccatum comes from recent introduction in Cuba, two cultivares (Ají ventilador y Ají campana) in markets and production traditional systems were detected.
