The composition of the essential oil of <I>Chenopodium ambrosioides var. anthelminticum</I> L. (Chenopodiaceae) leaves (also commonly known as American Wormseed, wormseed goosefood or sweet pig weed) from India (Himalayan area) was analyzed by GC-FID, GC-MS and olfactometry. As main compounds α-terpinene (65.4%) and para-cymene (29.4%) were found. Surprisingly the concentration of ascaridole, the main compound of <I>Chenopodium<I> species from various origin, was very low (0.7%) in this sample. The chromatographic-spectroscopic and olfactoric data as well as a possible influence of the identified volatiles on the reported biological effects will be discussed.Keywords
