Ostryopsis nobilis (Chinese: 滇虎榛; pinyin: dian hu zhen) is a shrub species in the genus Ostryopsis found in China. It is an endemic Chinese medicinal plant. It forms thickets on sunny mountain slopes between 1500 and 3000 m. It is found in South West Sichuan and North West Yunnan.

Two cyclic diarylheptanoids, named ostryopsitrienol and ostryopsitriol, can be isolated from the stems of O. nobilis.[3]
