The volatile oils were obtained by hydrodistillation, analyzed by GC?MS and GC-FID and their acaricidal activity was evaluated by the larval packettest and adultimmersion test. The volatile oils from Croton conduplicatus Kunth, Croton pulegiodorus Baill., and two different collections of Croton grewioides Baill. (CG1 and CG2) showed eucalyptol (24.09%), p-cymene (23.13%) and methyl chavicol (83.59% and 95.38%) as the major compounds, respectively. All the volatile oils tested in this study showed efficacy against larvae and engorged females of Rhipicephalus microplus. Therefore, Croton pulegiodorus volatile oil is promising for a potential acaricidal formulation because of the best activity against both stages of the cattle tick.  aChemical composition  aEssential oils  aRhipicephalus microplus  aTick control  aTicks  aAcaricida  aCarrapato  aComposição Química  aÓleo Essencial  aAcaricidal activity  aAtividade acaricida  aCroton conduplicatus Kunth  aCroton pulegiodorus Baill  aÓleo volátil1 aCHAGAS, A.
