At the time of this writing neither monoterpenes nor triterpenes have been reported from sponge sources, apart from squalene which was found in Ircinia spinosula 47) and I. muscarum 48). 

Inter alia, Ircinia spinosula also yielded, in smaller amounts, the lower isoprenologues of furospinosulin-3, with 25 and 30 carbon atoms. The structures of the isoprenologues (90), (91) and (92) as well as the structure of the C31 difuranoid compound (93) were derived by conventional spectral techniques and ozonolysis (47).
