title: Non polar constituents of Stenomesson variegatum (R. et P.) Macbr.
abstract: Hydrocarbons, triterpenoids and sterols were determined in Stenomesson variegatum (R. et P.) Macbr. (Amaryllidaceae), a plant used in traditional peruvian medicine as an antiinflammatory. An unusual presence of odd hydrocarbons was found, whereas triterpenoidic and sterolic fractions are quite usual and simple.
