Phalaenopsis wilsonii Rolfe
Chinese names: Die Lan (butterfly orchid), Huaxidie Lan (Western China butterfly orchid), Huaxihudie Lan (Western China moth orchid) Chinese medicinal name: Die lan Phalaenopsis wilsonii, also known as the Butterfly Orchid or Western China Butterfly Orchid, is a small species found in China (Yunnan, southeastern Xizang, western Guangxi, western Sichuan, and southwestern Guizhou) and northern Vietnam. It grows as an epiphyte on trees in sparse woods or as a lithophyte in shady areas along ravines. Interestingly, this orchid exhibits resistance to bacterial rot, fungi, arthropods, snails, and slugs. In Java, the leaves of Phalaenopsis wilsonii are even used in salads. From a phytochemical perspective, this species shows promise as a source of secondary metabolites. Many alkaloids, with most exceeding 0.1% of the total weight, have been identified. The major alkaloid found in Phalaenopsis wilsonii is phalaenopsine, which constitutes more than 90% of the alkaloid content and is present throughout the plant. This makes the extraction process relatively easy. Additionally, two phenanthropyran derivatives have been isolated from a related species, P. equestris. It is noteworthy that while naturally occurring pyrrolizidine alkaloids in plants are generally toxic and harmful to animals, the pyrrolizidine alkaloids found in orchids, including Phalaenopsis wilsonii, are believed to be non-toxic. In some countries, this plant is used in traditional medicine to alleviate headaches. Notably, Phalaenopsis wilsonii is highly fragrant. The scent compounds in this species include geranyl diphosphate synthase, which serves as the precursor for monoterpenes, the major scent compound found in strongly scented orchids such as Phalaenopsis bellina. It also contains geraniol and linalool, contributing to its aromatic properties. |
