The Zodia is one of the Indonesian plants from Papua, designated as biophytopharmaca because of its efficacy in preventing mosquito bites in the human body. The variety of types and levels of these organic compounds found in each organ of the plant zodia is the purpose of this study. The results showed that zodia plants dominated by hexane compounds were found in root bark (40.9%), stem bark (81.1%), leaves (88.2%), and seeds (90.2%). Then followed by benzene compounds respectively in the root bark organ (58.1%), stem bark (3.5%), seeds (1.5%), and leaves (1.9%). The total types of phytochemical compounds contained in the root bark organ (43 types), leaves (23 types), stem bark (18 types), and seeds (13 types). The special phytochemical found in root bark is Aristolone, in stem bark is Longiverbanon or Vulgarone B, in leaves is Evodone, and in seeds is Decosane. All types of phytochemicals are detected through GCMS method using GC-2010 and QMS-2010 type GCMS are potential as phytopharmaca if managed appropriately. By knowing the types and levels of phytochemicals found in each organ of zodia, it is expected to continue on drug research opportunity to manage it to be clinically useful for humans.
