Ordered a few varieties from Semillas de Palma:
 
Pimiento Piquillo c. annuum   
Piment dī Espelette c. annuum     
Aji de Sazonar c. frutescens      
Mini Rocoto Yellow c. pubescens
Mini Rocoto Red  c. pubescens   
CGN 22795 c. praetermissum
Cappucchino Chiltepin c. glabriusculum
 
Edit: Got an email from them this morning about
the updated regs regarding importing seeds into
the USA, asking if I wanted them to proceed anyway.

It is the most comprehensive source I've found.
Would like to find something similar but more
recent. I really liked the discussion about the
'wilds' 
 
Don't I get credit for the assist   ;)   ?
 Yeah ya do ;)
 
It certainly clarified a lot of the pepper types I've read about. The next time I go to my sons place, if there are any viable pods, I'll snag some seeds. He's got a few wild plants on his place.

Hey Paul, I still have heaps of Espelette seeds lying around. I got these from original Piment D'Espelette pods from an Espelette farm in France (in this case https://www.bipertegia.com/). Can't find any truer than these! The seeds are from the 2018 harvest. I'm always glad to share if you're interested! :)
I also should have some piquillo seeds available.

You are most kind, Marc. Let’s wait and see if the seeds
from Semillas de Palma make it through. If not, I will
definitely hit you up for a trade!
 
Having a hard time tracking down the Bolivian 1946 and 2090 SSE.
I have searched the Seed Savers Exchange, but nothing I can find
there. In the chilliman.org site there are a couple of possibilities,
(if these are wild varieties that PtMD sent):
 
     Bolivian Miniature c. annuum - looks like a chacoense-style
     Bolivian Small Red c. chacoense - wild variety
 
Even if these are correct, I won't know which is which!
 
I have some seeds labelled New Mexican SSE #2090.  I got them off of the Scorched's Seed Train in 2015 but it looks like I never grew them.  User fiogga was the person who put the seeds on the train.  No clue what they are.  Looks like I will try to grow them this year and we can compare.

I think these seeds came from Sandra as well.
PtMD989 got them from Bhuter for winning
Adam’s joke contest this season. I forgot
all about that until I read through Adam’s
grow log last night trying to find info on the
SSE seeds.
 
PtMD989 sharing some wild seeds! What I could find 
out about them in red.

                                      is a PI 632922 on the infernochili.net site which is
                                      described as a c. frutescens from Guatemala.

Edit: Added some information and links from CD.
 
fiogga sent me some Plant Index
numbers for the Bolivia SSE seeds.
 
The 2090 SSE: PI 260501, Yellow Jellybean. c. chinense
Very cool. I tried to germinate some of these way back in
2012, but they didn't pop for me. I got them from THSC
at that time. The web page says from Peru, but could
also be from Bolivia since these types grow in a swath
across both countries, if memory serves.
 
The 1946 SSE: PI 238061, 'Bird Aji' c. baccatum var. Baccatum,
Bolivia. Scroll the web page to find this one.
 
Big shout out to fiogga for chasing these down for me!
 
Sounds good, brother. Are they wild Tepins?
Towing the tractor on a flat bed trailer?
 
BTW, If you're c. chacoense or Pequin don't pop
for you let me know and I'll send some more of the
late season pods which have been ripening in the
greenhouse.
 
Yeah, I'm really torn about what to plant this season.
I wish I had room for 100 plants (and a couple of
helpers  ;) )
