The hydro-distilled essential oil (1.6%) of fresh aerial parts of wild Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt was analyzed by GC-MS. Fifty compounds representing 96.5% of the oil were identified. The main components of the oil were linalool (27.4%), citronellol (10.9%), geraniol (8.5%), a-calacorene, cis-calamenene (4.3%), b-elemene (3.9%) and longifolene (3.5%). The oil exhibited low antimicrobial activity.Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt was analyzed by GC-MS. Fifty compounds representing 96.5% of the oil were identified.
