Abstract
The essential oil composition of aerial parts of Stachys parviflora was analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS apparatus. Twenty-three compounds, representing 99.9 % of the oil, were characterized. Muurolol <epi-α> (48.4 %) and caryophyllene <(z)->(11.2 %) were the major components of the oil. Major fraction of the essential was oxygenated sesquiterpenes (71.4 %).
