Abstract
The steam volatile leaf oils of Melaleuca cordata Turcz., M. halmaturorum F. Muell. ex Miq. subsp. cymbifolia (Benth.) Barlow, M. incana R.Br., M. lanceolata Otto subsp. planifolia Barlow, M. rhaphiophylla Schauer, M. sheathiana W. Fitzg, M. sp.aff. sheathiana and M. uncinata R.Br. sensu lato were analysed by GCβMS. The oils were entirely terpenoid with the exception of M. halmaturorum var. cymbifolia which contained small amounts of baeckeol. Whilst 1,8βcineole was a major constituent of most oils, terpinenβ4βol was the chief constituent of M. uncinata oil.
