There are three major blueberry types: Highbush (V. corymbosum L.) Lowbush blueberry (V. angustifolium Ation) Bilberries (European blueberry, V. myrtillus) Lowbush blueberries are wild and are made up of many different clones that exhibit a great deal of phytochemical diversity  The lowbush fruit is smaller than that of the highbush variety. The functional components of Vaccinium products appear to be the phenolic compounds, particularly the anthocyanins . Extracts of the bilberry, V. myrtillus, a type of European wild blueberry are widely used in prescription and over-the-counter medications. There are currently over 180 Vaccinium pharmaceutical products available world wide.
