Resumen:
A. hyperchlora is typical on the humid slopes in the mountains of the northern Argentina, at 1000e3000 m above sea level. Aerial parts were collected in April 2001 in Departamento La Caldera, Salta province, Argentina. Achyrocline hyperchlora Blake (Asteraceae, Inuleae) is one of the eight species of this genus described in South America. Some of these species are used in folk medicine as antispasmodic, febrifuge, tonic, anthelmintic, and antiasthmatic.In this work we describe the isolation and chemical characterization of flavonoids from A. hyperchlora and its essential oil composition. The characteristic strong odor of this species in its natural habitat is noteworthy.
