Abstract Essential oils of fragrant Mosiera ehrenbergii (O. Berg) Landrum (Myrtaceae), collected in Arizona from Mexican seed, and M. longipes (O. Berg) Small, collected in Florida, were examined by GC/MS/FID. Thirty-eight constituents were identified with dominant components of limonene (51.6±0.7%) and α-pinene (33.6±2.4%) in M. ehrenbergii and limonene (47.8±2.5%) in M. longipes.
