Abstract
The genus of Satureja with the persian name of “Marzeh” consists of 14 species in Iran, 9 of them are endemic. One of these endemic species is Satureja bachtiarica.
In this research, the aerial parts of S. bachtiarica were collected from two different localities in Fars and Yazd provinces, at full flowering stage. The plant materials were hydro-distilled for obtaining their essential oils. The oils were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS.  The oil yields were calculated equal to 2.15% for Yazd sample and 1.65% for Fars sample.
Twenty compounds were identified in the oil of Fars sample with carvacrol (49.3%), p-cymene (12.7%) and trans-a-bergamotene (5.8%) as main components.
Twenty compounds were characterized in the oil of Yazd sample with carvacrol (66.5%), p-cymene (15.2%) and linalool (4.6%) as main constituents.
The relatively high amount of oil yield and high percentage of carvacrol in the oil of S. bachtiarica, showed that this species could have the medicinal and nutritional uses like S. hortensis and S. montana. These two Satureja species are not native of Iran and S. bachtiarica may be used instead of them.
