Gastrointestinal nematodes are an important problem in the small ruminant production and their control nearly exclusively depends on commercial anthelmintics. However, parasite resistance to those chemical formulations is an increasing global problem, so new plant-derived compounds are being studied for their potential use against gastrointestinal nematodes. Citrus sinensis and Melaleuca quinquenervia essential oils were evaluated against Haemonchus contortus Embrapa2010 resistant isolate, through the egg hatch test (EHT) and larval development test (LDT) at concentrations ranging from 0.02 mg/mL to 50 mg/mL and from 0.04 mg/mL to 3.12 mg/mL, respectively. All concentrations, positive controls (thiabendazole in EHT or ivermectin in LDT), and negative controls (2% Tween 80 in EHT or 0.5% DMSO in LDT) were performed in six replicates and in three independent experiments, for a total of 18 repetitions involving approximately 1800 parasites per treatment. Significant differences (P
