%X The essential oils isolated by hydrodistillation from the peel and fruits of fresh Citrus hystrix DC, were identified by GC-Kovats retention indices and GC-EI-MS. Twenty six (26) compounds have been identified from the peel and thirty seven (37) compounds have been identified from the fruit oils. The major compounds contained in peel oil were ?-pinene (27%), limonene (24.7%) and sabinene (13.8%) while ?-terpeneol (15.8%), ?-pinene (15.1 %) and limonene (9.1 %) were the major compounds of fruit oil.
