The guest will only see a virtual Ethernet card, even if the guest is attached to a wifi card on the host The type of Ethernet card presented to the guest is in the guest's Network settings in the Virtualbox GUI.

To get the guest to see a wifi card you will have to get a USB wifi dongle and connect it to the guest through the Virtualbox USB filters.
