Hi C-H's,

Wow - a post about chile peppers!

>habs are capsicum chinense (big misnomer since they originate from the
>carribean way)

I always thought it was because they are shaped like Chinese lanterns.

>aji are capsicum baccatum

Depends. I believe that "Aji" is a native S. American name for hot 
peppers. It can be applied to just about anything Capsicum.
