%X <p>The aim of the study was to find out firstly whether there are differences between the etheric oils of botanically alike but in different climatic conditions growing trees, and secondly whether the oils from alike trees are also alike. This article shortly describes the chemical composition of  <em>Pseudotsuga Douglasii cecian</em> Schwerin and <em>Pinus Murrayana</em> Engelm. The needle samples are from Mustiala Arboretum.</p><p>The first mentioned contains α-pinene, camphene, bornyl acetate, probably also limonene but no geraniol. Pinus Murraya’s oil contains pinene, camphene, borneol and cadinene.</p><p>The PDF contains a summary in Finnish.  </p>
