Résumé :	The flower oil of Evodia lunu-ankenda (Gaertn) Merr. (Rutaceae) obtained by hydrodistillation was analyzed by GC/FID and GC/MS. Thirty-one out of 38 constituents comprising 95.1% of the oil were identified. The major constituents identified were evodione (38.9%), (E)-β-ocimene (12.4%), isolycodolin (11.7%) and alloevodionol (10.6%). The flower oil showed significant antibacterial activity, especially against the Gram-negative bacteria, Salmonella typhi and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
