The Mopane Essential Oil (Colophospermum mopane) is one of the principal trees in the dry regions of Southern Africa.
The aerial parts of the mopane are rich in essential oils that comprise mainly alpha-pinene and limonene, which are presumably responsible for the strong turpentine odor of the pods.
