Popis: The hydrodistilled essential oil from the fresh rhizomes of Zingiber pellitum Gagnep. (Zingiberaceae) originating in Vietnam was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The chemical constituents of the oil were identified using MassFinder program which allows two-dimensional search of mass spectra and retention indices of compounds. The oil was found to be rich of terpinen-4-ol (35.9 %), p-cymene (19.8 %), and sabinene (7.1 %). Monoterpenoids constituted 80.1 % of the oil. Sesquiterpenoids were detected as minor compounds of the oil and the identified compounds consisted of 2.5 % of the oil.
