Labdane diterpenes from the marine pulmonate gastropod Trimusculus peruvianus [PDF]
Secondary metabolites from pulmonate molluscs of the genera Siphonaria, Onchidium, and Trimusculus are described. Siphonaria and Onchidium biosynthesize mostly propionate-based metabolites whereas Trimusculus yields diterpene derivatives with a single type of labdane skeleton.
