Oleoresins of Pinus merkusii and Pinus insulari (Khasi pine) from Arunachal Pradesh were studied. On hydrodistillation the two resins gave 23% and 21 % of turpentine oil respectively. The oils were analysed by GLC. P. merkusii oil was found to contain α -pinene (57.05%). And -carene (39.35%) while α-pinene (59.36%), β -pinene (31.20%) and longifolcne (0.78%) were present in that of P insularis.
