Five new hybrid peptide–polyketides, curvularides A–E ( 1 – 5 ), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Curvularia geniculata , which was obtained from the limbs of Catunaregam tomentosa . Structure elucidation for curvularides A–E ( 1 – 5 ) was accomplished by analysis of spectroscopic data, as well as by single‐crystal X‐ray crystallography. Curvularide B ( 2 ) exhibited antifungal activity against Candida albicans , and it also showed synergistic activity with a fluconazole drug.
