Abstract
⺠The essential oils of twelve specimens of Piper dilatatum occurring in the Amazon were analyzed. ⺠The oils were grouped into seven groups based on hierarchical analysis. ⺠The sesquiterpenes hydrocarbons and oxygenated sesquiterpenes predominate in these oils, with very different structural types. ⺠This is a chemotaxonomic contribution to better understanding of Piper species.
