Abstract

The amount of essential oils and the main secondary metabolites of three species of Lantana genus: Lantana camara L.. Lantana hispida HBK and Lantana trifolia L. collected in seven different localities in Guatemala, were analyzed in this study. The essential oils showed yields between 0.03 and 0.65 (w/d.w.) for all samples after extraction by hydrodistillation using a Clevenger type apparatus. The highest mean yield corresponded to L. hispida (0.42%). After collection, identification and extraction, phytochemical surveys and TLC assays were earned out to determine the presence of secondary metabolites from seven families. All samples were found to contain flavonoids, alkaloids and saponins.
