Anacamptis coriophora 
Common name: Bug orchid
Flowers are small, green to deep wine-red. Tepals are joined to form a hood above the column. P-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, an aglycone of gastrodin, has been isolated from many terrestrial and mycoheterotrophic orchid species.
In rats, gastrodin and p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol facilitate memory consolidation and retrieval. 
p-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol also has skin whitening effects because it inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme that catalyses the formation of the skin pigment, melanin.

• arundinin, isoarudinin-I, isoarundinin II;
• lusianthridin, flavanthrin; flavidin;
• and batatasin III.
• Arundinol (a triterpenoid) and p- hydroxybenzyldehyde are also present. Some of these have not been found in other Orchids.
• It also has benzyldihydrophe- nanthrene.
• It also has arundinaol (7-hydroxy-1-( p-hydroxybenzyl)-2,4-dimethoxy- 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene). 

5 phenanthrene were also isolated. Their properties are still under research :

• orchinol or 7-hydroxy-2,4-dimethoxy-9,10- dihydrophenanthrene;
• 4,7-dihydroxy-2-methoxy- 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene;
• 2,7-dihydroxy-4- methoxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene;
• 7-hydroxy- 2-methoxyphenanthrene-1,4-dione or densiflorol B;
• and 7-hydroxy-2-methoxy-9,10-dihydrophe- nanthrene-1,4-dione. 

Important antitumour activity was exhibited by the first three compounds, maxi- mal in compound 3 which possesses an open bibenzyl ring:

• 2,7-dihydroxy-1-( p-hydroxylbenzyl)-4- methoxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene;
• 4,7-dihydro xy-1-)p-hydroxybenzyl)-2-methoxy-9,10-dihydro xyphenanthrene;
• 3,30-dihydroxy-5-methoxybiben zyl;
• (2E)-2-propenoic acid-3(4-hydroxy-3-metho xyphenyl)-tetracosyl ester;
