✦ Synopsis

We have previously reported the occurrence of two sesterterpene lactones CL and 2) from two species of the sponge genus Thorecd.

Investigation of eight further species of this diffuse Indo-Pacific genus has revealed five species which do not elaborate sesterterpenes but contain the tryptophan derivative 3, for which we suggest the name aplysinopsin, as a major secondary metabolite.
