Piper mestonii
Piper mestonii, commonly known as Queensland long pepper or simply long pepper, is an evergreen vine in the pepper family Piperaceae native to rainforests of New Guinea and Queensland, Australia.
In New Guinea Piper mestonii is found in most parts of the island. In Australia it is restricted to a vary small area of northeastern Queensland, on the eastern slopes of the Bellenden Ker Range from around Fishery Falls south to around Innisfail (approximately 40 km (25 mi) north to south). It grows in well developed rainforest, often near creeks and rivers, at altitudes from near sea level to 350 m (1,150 ft).
