Two new alkaloids, communesins A (129 an amorphous powder) and B (130 an amorphous powder) were isolated from the mycelium of a strain of Penicillium sp. (Trichocomacae) collected in Japan on the marine green alga Enteromorpha intestinalis. Their relative structure was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis [84].
