Renealmia alpinia (Syn.: Alpinia exaltata L. f.; Roem. & Schult.; Amomum alpinia Rottb., Renealmia exaltata L. f.) ist ist eine Pflanzenart in der Familie der Ingwergewächse (Zingiberaceae). Sie stammt aus Amerika, wo sie vom südlichen Mexiko bis in weiten Gebieten Südamerikas vorkommt, though not in the Southern Cone.[2] Sie kommt auch auf einigen karibischen Inseln vor.
Name
In Quechua it is called misk'i p'anqa (misk'i sweet; honey, p'anqa bract, "sweet bract" or "honey bract").[3][4] The name alludes to R. alpinia's value as a culinary herb, especially for flavoring fish. Among Spanish-speakers this species is known as jenjibre-de-jardin ("garden ginger"). Both jenjibre-de-jardin and ginger (Zingiber officinale) are in the Zingiberaceae family.
Renealmia alpinia is commonly known as mardi gras in Trinidad, where hunters administer it either Peroral or topically to their Jagdhunds to treat a variety of conditions, from Verstauchung to Schlangenbiss.[5]
Merkmale
Biochemistry
Zhou et al. (1997) of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University identified three diterpenes produced by R. alpinia: 11-hydroxy-8(17),12(E)-labdadien-15,-16-dial 11,15-hemiacetal (1) and 16-oxo-8(17),12(E)-labdadien-15-oic acid (2), which are labdane diterpenes, and 8(17),12(E)-labdadien-15,16-dial (3). The team performed these assays on the basis of reports that R. alpinia may be antipyretic (fever-reducing).[6]
Biogeography
In Mexico, wild R. alpinia populations have been found in the southern states of Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Veracruz. It also grows on the Caribbean islands of Dominica, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Montserrat, Puerto Rico, St. Kitts, Nevis, Trinidad, and Tobago.
In Central America, it grows in Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, and Panama.
In South America, it is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela.
