Seed oils ofCarlina corymbosa L. andC. acaulis L. containcis‐5‐octadecenoic acid as a major fatty acid (21–24%). This acid has not been previously reported as a constituent of Compositate seed oils. The predominant fatty acid in theCarlina oils is linoleic (50–52%); lesser amounts (≦10% each) of palmitic, stearic and oleic acids are also present. The oil ofC. acaulis has almost 2% ofcis‐5‐hexadecenoic acid;C. corymbosa oil includes minor amounts of some oxygenated fatty acids.
