Abstract-A comprehensive and up-to-date listing is provided of the distribution of phenethylamines in the Plant
Kingdom. Such a listing is of importance because of their considerable physiological activity in higher animals.
Their distribution in plants is also of some taxonomic interest.
Phenethylamine and p-hydroxyphenethylamine (tyra- the Table, see Fig. 1). The biosynthesis of the phenethyl-
mine) are found in many families throughout the plant amines in higher plants has been reviewed recently [6].

at quite high levels in certain species; for instance due to their physiological activity in higher animals. The

amine) are hydroxylated phenethylamines, collectively
known as the catecholamines. Ingestion of these and
related amines in food, especially by patients using
monoamine oxidase inhibitors as anti-depressants, can
induce significant physiological effects [7]. Potential
food plants are marked + in the Table.
Aegelln [I631 Mescaline, found in several cacti, is a powerful hallu-
cinogen [8], and dietary phenethylamine may precipitate
migraines [9]. Ephedrine is used in medicine for its
