摘要
The essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of five species of Cunila (Lamiaceae) native to Southern Brazil were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The oil of Cunila angustifolia was characterized by sabinene; Cunila incana is rich in α-pinene and β-pinene, Cunila spicata and Cunila microcephala presented menthofuran as the main component, and in the essential oil of Cunila incisa, the major component was 1,8-cineole. Laboratory tests were carried out to determine the effect of the essential oils of the above cited plants on larvae of the cattle tick Riphicephalus (Boophilus) microplus. C. angustifolia, C. incana, and C. spicata were the most active samples killing almost the totality of the larvae. C. incisa and C. microcephala showed low acaricidal effect.
