"Pitcairnia" is a genus of the botanical family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Pitcairnioideae. It was named for Dr. William Pitcairn, English physician and gardener (1711-1791) [ [http://bsi.org/brom_info/genera.html Bromeliad Info - Genera Etymology ] ] . The genus Pitcairnia ranks as the second most prolific of the bromeliad family (after Tillandsia). They are most abundant in Colombia, Peru and Brazil, but can also be found in areas from Cuba and Mexico south to Argentina.

Almost all "Pitcairnias" are terrestrial or , and prefer shade and moist areas. However, many are found growing epiphytically in trees.

44 "Pitcairnia" species had been classified within the "Pepinia" genus which had been established as a subgenera by Lyman Smith and then elevated to a genus by Varadarajan and Gilmatin based on the absence of seed appendages. Modern molecular study has confirmed that these plants are not an independent genus, and are correctly classified within Pitcairnia.
