Hyperoside is a chemical compound. It is the 3-O-galactoside of quercetin.
Natural occurrences[edit]
Hyperoside has been isolated from Drosera rotundifolia, from the Lamiaceae Stachys sp. and Prunella vulgaris, from Rumex acetosella, Cuscuta chinensis seeds, from St John's wort and from Camptotheca acuminata.[1] It is one of the phenolic compounds in the invasive plant Carpobrotus edulis and contributes to the antibacterial[2] properties of the plant.
In Rheum nobile and R. rhaponticum, it serves as a UV blocker found in the bracts.
It is also found in Geranium niveum[3] and Taxillus kaempferi.[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
