Essential oil from the seeds and husks of Aframomum corrorima (Braun) P.C.M. Jansen were analysed by gas chromatography (GC–MS), and 55 compounds were identified. The main constituents found in the seed oil were the monoterpenes 1,8-cineole (44.3%) and sabinene (17.3%), whereas sesquiterpenic structures (≥2%) such as (E)-nerolidol (17.2%), β-caryophyllene (9.7%) and caryophyllene oxide (6.9%), dominated in the husk oil.
