Description	The fumigant toxicity, ovicidal and oviposition-deterrent potential of the essential oil of Indian dill, Anethum sowa and its three major fractions against the grain beetle Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) on chickpea were investigated. Two fractions produced 100% mortality of adult beetles at 3.0 μl/ml dosage, whereas the essential oil was the least effective. Fraction III was 100% ovicidal at a 70 μl/ml concentration. The essential oil and fraction III both completely deterred oviposition at the lowest concentration tested, 10 μl/ml. Neither the essential oil nor its fractions had any significant effect on chickpea seed germination. La toxicité fumigène, la potentialité ovicide et antiovipositionnelle de l'huile essentielle de l'aneth Indien, Anethum sowa et de ses trois principales fractions, contre la bruche Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) ont été étudiées sur pois chiche. Deux fractions produisent 100% de mortalité des. bruches adultes à la dose de 3.0 μl/ml, tandis que l'huile essentielle est la moins efficace. La fraction III provoque 100% de mortalité des oeufs à la concentration de 70 μl/ml. L'huile essentielle et la fraction III inhibent complètement l'oviposition à la plus faible concentration testée, 10 μl/ml. Ni l'huile essentielle, ni ses fractions n'ont d'effet significatif sur la germination des graines de pois chiches.
