3. Isolation and structure of the exceptional Pterobranchia human cancer inhibitors cephalostatins 16 and 171

4. The unavailability of color photographs ofC. gilchristifrom the Pettit collection inspired a thorough web search for closely relatedCephalodiscusspecies. A key paper (Schiaparelli, S., Cattaneo-Vietti, R., and Mierzejewski, P.Polar. Bio. 2004, 27, 813) led us to contact professor Schiaparelli, who graciously provided the first three pictures shown in Chart 1. Comparison of a drawing ofC. gilchristiprovided by Professor Pettit withC. densusphoto 1.3 revealed the minute (3 mm) worms to be nearly identical. Schiaparelli collectedC. densusfrom Terra Nova Bay, Ross Sea, Antarctica, begging the question of whether it also hosts an assortment of trisdecacyclic pyrazines.

5. Ritterazine A, a highly cytotoxic dimeric steroidal alkaloid, from the tunicate Ritterella tokioka
