Abstract :  The essential oils of water-distilled aerial parts of Achillea arabica Kotschy and Achillea coarctata Poir., were analyzed by GC-MS. As a result of twenty-six and twenty-seven compounds were identified representing 96.7% and 92.53% of the oils, respectively. The major constituents of A. arabica were 1,8-cineole insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(42.33%);, trans-chrysanthenon insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(12.71%);, a-pinene insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(8.29%);, b-cymen insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(5.42%);, and camphene insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(5.10%);, whereas 1,8-cineole insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(34.22%);, camphor insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(9.24%);, cis-sabinene hydrate insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(8.35%);, caryophyllene oxide insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(7.59%);, and borneol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(7.20%); were the main compounds of A. coarctata .
