The essential oil from the aerial parts of Minthostachys setosa (Briq.) Epl. (Lamiaceae), collected near Lima, Perú, was obtained by hydrodistillation in 0.68% (v/w) yield, on a dry weight basis. By GC–MS analyses, 43 of 50 compounds were identified. Monoterpene ketones constituted 79.2% of the oil, with pulegone as the main component. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
