ABSTRACT
The constituents of the essential oil obtained from flowerheads of Chamomilla recutita (L.) Rausch. plants growing around Medianeira city, in Paraná State, Brazil, were analyzed by GC/MS.

The Brazilian oil contained the following major components: bisabolol oxide B (23%), bisabolol oxide A (17%), (Z)-β-farnesene (16%), α-bisabolol (13%), chamazulene (8%) and chamo-spiroether (5%).
