This study was aimed to investigate the chemical compositions of the essential oils from Goniothalamus mac-rophyllusandGoniothalamusmalayanusgrowinginMalaysia. Theessentialoilswereobtainedbyhydrodistillationandfully characterized by gas chromatography (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Analyses of the essential oils from G. macrophyllus and G. malayanus resulted in 93.6 and 95.4% of the total oils, respectively. The major components of G. macrophyllus oil were germacrene D (25.1%), bicyclogermacrene (11.6%), α-copaene (6.9%) and δ-cadinene (6.4%), whereas in G. malayanus oil bicyclo-germacrene (43.9%), germacrene D (21.1%) and β-elemene (8.4%) were the most abundant components.
