摘　　要：Chemical analyses were conducted with leave oils of Eucalyptus smithii, E. bakeri, E. polybractea, E. dives, E. radiata and E. macarthurii vvhich were introduced to southwestern China from Australia. It was found that the leaf oils of E. smithii, E. bakeri and E. polybractea contained 81-90% of 1 ,8-cineole, and E. dives and E. radiata contained higher a-phelandrene and piperitone. There vvere significant inter- and intraspeciflc variations in leaf oil yield, it also varied with seasons in vvhich leaves...Chemical analyses were conducted with leave oils of Eucalyptus smithii, E. bakeri, E. polybractea, E. dives, E. radiata and E. macarthurii vvhich were introduced to southwestern China from Australia. It was found that the leaf oils of E. smithii, E. bakeri and E. polybractea contained 81-90% of 1 ,8-cineole, and E. dives and E. radiata contained higher a-phelandrene and piperitone. There vvere significant inter- and intraspeciflc variations in leaf oil yield, it also varied with seasons in vvhich leaves vvere harvested. The results suggested that more research should be undertaken to identify genotypes with high-yield of leaf oils. These species could be applied to develop community forestry.
