A new sesquiterpenoid, junceol A(1), as well as two known diterpenoids, sclerophytin A (2) and cladiellisin (3), have been isolated from the sea pen octocoral Virgularia juncea. The structure of metabolite 1 was determined by extensive spectral analysis. Compounds 1-3 have been shown to exhibit cytotoxicity toward P-388 cancer cells.
