Abstract

The volatile leaf oils of Eucalyptus seeana Maiden, E. bancroftii (Maiden) Maiden, E. parramattensis C. Hall, E. amplifilia Naudin, E. tereticornis J. Smith, E. blakelyi Maiden, E. dealbata A. Cunn. ex. Schauer, E. dwyeri Maiden & Blakely, E. vicina L. A. S. Johnson & K. D. Hill, E. flindersii Boomsma, E. camaldulensis Dehnh. var camaldulensis, E. camaldulensis Dehnh. var. obtusa Blakely, E. rudis Endl., E. exserta F. Muell. and E. gillenii Ewart & L. R. Kerr, isolated by vacuum distillation, were analysed by GC-MS. Most species contained α-pinene (1.5–14%), 1,8-cineole (0–81%), p-cymene (0.6–28%) and aromadendrene/terpinen-4-ol (0.6–24%) as principal leaf oil components.
