The essential oils from Salvia aurea L., Salvia ianthina Otto et A. Dietr., Salvia iodantha Fernald and Salvia cinnabarina M. Martens et Galeotti were analysed by means of GC/MS. A total of 89 components were identified and the variation of composition during the year of the first three species was studied. The antimicrobial activity of the essential oil from Salvia aurea L. was also tested. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
