Abstract
The vacuolar flavonoid profile of Umbellularia californica consists of 3- O-mono-, di- and triglycosides of kaempferol, quercetin and isorhamnetin together with eriodictyol 7- O-glucoside. The leaf exudate contained no flavonoids but did exhibit a small amount of scopoletin. The two growth forms of this species, a shrubby form from dry habitats and a coastal forest tree, exhibited identical flavonoid profiles. These observations were taken to indicate that the flavonoid profile of this species became established before the two growth forms differentiated. The flavonol profile of Umbellularia is consistent with profiles reported for other members of the Lauraceae.
