The essential oils isolated by hydrodistillation from the leaves of six Eucalyptus were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The main components identified in E. intertexta R.T.Baker oil were 1,8-cineole (64.8%), terpinen-1-ol (7.2%) and α-pinene (5.7%); in E. largiflorens F.Muell. were 1,8-cineole (47%), p-cymene (10.6%) and α-terpineol (8.5%); in E. kingsmillii Maiden et Blakely were 1,8-cineole (77%), α-pinene (8.7%) and camphene (3.8%); in E. dealbata A. Cunn. were 1,8-cineole (70.6%), α-pinene (13%) and terpinen-1-ol (3.7%). The major components of the oil of E. loxophleba Benth. ssp. loxophleba were 1,8-cineole (41.9%), α-pinene (13.7%) and aromadendrene (3.7%), and the major components of E. kruseana F.Muell. were bicyclogermacrene (28.8%), α-pinene (17.7%) and 1,8-cineole (12.1%).

The volatile constituents of Achillea millefolium ssp. elbursensis were isolated by different methods of distillation (hydrodistillation and steam distillation) and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major constituents of A. millefolium ssp. elbursensis oil by hydrodistillation from the flower were chamazulene (54%), camphor (8%) and isoborneol (7.6%), while the leaf oil contained chamazulene (35%), isoborneol (18.2%) and p-cymene (14.8%). The major oil constituents from the flower (by steam distillation) were chamazulene (78.4%) and longifolene (7.6%), while the major constituents of the leaf oil were chamazulene (82.5%) and germacrene B (3.6%).

The volatile constituents of Anthemis triumfettii (L.) All. subsp. triumfettii were isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major constituents of A. triumfettii flower oil were elemol (15.8%), α- copaene (8.6%), elemicin (7.9%), and humulene oxide II (8.0%), while the leaf oil was rich in α -copaen-8 -ol (7.6%), β- eudesmol (7.2%), α -fenchene (5%), ledol (4.2%) and elemol (4%).

The volatile constituents of Teucrium stocksianum Boiss. ssp. stocksianum were isolated by hydrodistillation and the essential oil was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Thirty-eight compounds representing 97.7% of the oil were identified of which camphene (20.6%), α-cadinol (19.7%), myrcene (10.2%) and carvacrol (9.9%) were major. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The volatile constituents of Anthemis altissima L. var. altissima were isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major constituents of A. altissima fl ower oil were spathulenol (18.7%), caryophyllene oxide (9.3%), 1-eicosene (7%) and sabinene (6.2%), while the leaf oil contained spathulenol (18.2%), caryophyllene oxide (9.5%), methyl hexadecanoate (8%) and isocaryophyllene (7.4%).
