Two samples Amomum from NinhThuan were investigated. They were identified as Amomum thyrsoideum Gagnep. and Amomum longiligulare T.L. Wu. The leaf-oils and fruit-oils from two varitae were analysed by GC/MS. 14 compounds were detected in the leaf-oils and 19 in the fruit-oils. The main components in the leaf-oils, from A. thyrsoideum were cis-Ocimene (39.03%) and -Pinene (41.55%), from A. longiligulare were -Pinene (22.50%) and -Pinene (61.77%). The main components of the fruit-oils were camphor (34.29-35.77% and 44.46%) and bornyl acetate (41.22-43.25%, and 26.62%). The fruits from the two varieties are rich on essential oil.
