Zusammenfassung:	The essential oil of Ocotea comoriensis Kostermans (Lauraceae) was obtained from bark by hydrodistillation of plant material collected in the Comoros Islands. Analysis by GC and GC–MS indicates a terpenic chemical composition, with camphene, α‐pinene and bornyl acetate as the major components. The volatile extract did not reveal important antioxidant, larvicide or antimalarial properties. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
