The genus Schefflera J.R.Forst.& G.Forst.(Araliaceae)is comprised of about 550-600 species,with greater species diversity in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world(1,2),Schefflera venulosa(Wight & Arn.)Harms is an evergreen shrub occurring in forests along streams,rivers,and in mangrove swamps,which often tend to be scandent and epiphytic in nature.The species is distributed in India,Myanmar,Indo-China,W.S.China,Bangladesh,and some parts of the Malay Peninsula.The stems and leaves of the plant are used in Chinese folk medicine for the treatment of arthritis and headache(3).In India,different parts of the plant are used in traditional medicine for treatment of rheumatism(4),dropsy and paralysis(5),and foot and mouth diseases of livestock(6),The extract of the plant has a variety of biological activities,including spermicidal,antioxidant,and anticancer properties(7,8).Though several triterpenes,sesquiterpenes,glycosides,and steroids from the leaf extract of the species have been isolated and identified(9,10),no report is yet available on the presence of essential oil in the leaves.Therefore,this is the first report on the chemical composition and antioxidant activity of the leaf essential oil of Schefflera venulosa.
