The current study was carried out to evaluate antifeedant and insecticidal activities of three essential oils from leaves of Hyptis suaveolens, Chromolaena odorata and Lantana camara against fourth instar larvae of Spodoptera litura under the laboratory conditions. Results indicated that the essential oil from leaves of Hyptis suaveolens had a strong antifeedant impact on the larvae with antifeedant index (AI) of 75.4, 88.5 and 92.9 when leaf disks of Ipomoea batatas were treated with the essential oil at concentration of 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 %, respectively. Also dose dependent mortalities were observed in the larvae topical treated with the essential oil at different concentrations. At the treated concentration of 0.4 mg per each larva, 68.3 % of the larvae were killed after 24 hours, and 25.0 % were died at the pupal stage after 30 days of observation. At the concentration of 1.2 mg/larva, 93.3 % of the larvae were killed after 24 hours, and no emergence of adults was recorded after 30 days of observation. Larvicidal activity of the H. suaveolens essential oil (with the lethal doses LD50=0.16 and LD95=1.52 mg/larva) was stronger than those of the C. odorata and L. camara essential oils (with LD50=0.57–0.63 and LD95=4.64–4.97 mg/larva) after 24 hour of treatment. GC–MS analysis indicates that the major volatile components of the essential oil from leaves of H. suaveolens are composed of b-caryophyllene (30.0 %), eucalyptol (12.0 %), copaene (5.9 %), and a-bergamotene (5.7 %). This essential oil needs to be further investigated and used as a bio-insecticide for control of S. litura.

Lantana camara Linn is a family of Verbenaceae which grows wild and is widespread in various both tropical and sub-tropical countries. Isolation essential oil of the L. camara leaves extracted by hydrodistillation and were analyzed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). The results of GC-MS analysis show isocaryophyllene (14.39%), ρ-cymene (8.17 %), β-cubebene (7.8 %), α-pinene (7.64 %), and β-elemene (5.51 %) as the main compound. The cytotoxic activity of the isolated essential oil was highly toxic both to Artemia salina shrimp larvae (LC50 15.92 µg/mL) and to breast cancer cells T-47D (IC50 10.67 µM).

The essential oil obtained from the leaves of Lantana camara var. moritziana (Otto & Dietr.) López-Palacios collected at Rubio, Táchira State, Venezuela, was obtained by hydrodistillation in a Clevenger trap (0.1% yield). The oil was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) on HP GC-MS System, model 5973, identifying 33 compounds (97.1%) of which the major components were germacrene D (31.0%), followed by β-caryophyllene (14.8%), α-phellandrene (6.7%), limonene (5.7%) and 1,8-cineole (5.2%). Evaluation of the antibacterial activity by agar diffusion method with discs against international reference bacteria ( Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella Typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) showed growing inhibition of E. faecalis and S. aureus at MIC of 350 mg/mL and 400 mg/mL, respectively.
