Abstract. Needle oil of Pinus peuce Griseb. produced from five different growth stages at the location Gine vode, Šar planina mountain, Serbia, was examined for yield and composition during 1994. Although only twelve components were identified in the oil, the main constituents were α-pinene (18.64%), γ-muurolene (17.93%), δ-3-carene (13.82%), sabinene (13.23%) and bornyl acetate (12.23%). The prevailing amount of monoterpenes was found in every stage of growth. The richness of the oil in α-pinene and γ-muurolene has chemotaxonomic impli¬cations.

ETARSKO ULJE IZ IGLICA PINUS PEUCE
Ispitivan je sadržaj i sastav etarskog ulja Pinus peuce Griseb. pop¬ulacije sa staništa Gine vode na Šar planini tokom pet različitih faza razvića 1994. godine. Iako je identifikovano samo dvanaest komponenata etarskog ulja, utvrđeno je da su glavni sastojci ulja α-pinen (18,64%), γ-murolen (17,93%), δ-3-karen (13,82%), sabinen (13,23%) i bornil-acetat (12,23%). Monoterpeni su u odnosu na seskviterpene dominirajuća grupa jedinjenja u ulju i to u svakoj fazi razvića ponaosob. Količinska zastupljenost α-pinen i γ-murolena u ulju ima hemotaksonomski značaj.
