Phyllocladene was the major diterpene in 15 specimens of Dacrydium biforme adult foliage. The major sesquiterpenes, which vary considerably in level from tree to tree, have been identified. Juvenile and adult foliage extracts from the same trees differed greatly. 8α-Isopimara-9(11),15-diene was the major diterpene in juvenile foliage. ( Z)-5-Ethylidene-2(5H)-furanone was an artefact of steam-distillation of juvenile leaves.
