Résumé :	Essential oils from the leaves of Myristica malabarica and Gymnacranthera canarica (Myristicaceae) were isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/FID and GC/MS. Seventy-six constituents (98.5%) with β-caryophyllene (27.3%), α-humulene (13.8%) and α-copaene (11.5%) as major components were identifed from the leaf oil of M. malabarica. Also, seventy-six constituents (98.1%) with β-caryophyllene (23.4%), linalool (13.4%) and α-humulene (11.3%) as major constituents were identified from the leaf oil of G. canarica. Sesquiterpene hydrocarbons constituted 77.3% in M. malabarica leaf oil and 58.1% in G. canarica leaf oil.
