Marine myxobacteria ( Enhygromyxa , Plesiocystis , Pseudoenhygromyxa , Haliangium ) are phylogenetically distant from their terrestrial counterparts. Salimabromide is the first natural product from the Plesiocystis / Enhygromyxa clade of obligatory marine myxobacteria. Salimabromide has a new tetracyclic carbon skeleton, comprising a brominated benzene ring, a furano lactone residue, and a cyclohexane ring, bridged by a seven‐membered cyclic moiety. The absolute configuration was deduced from experimental and calculated CD data. Salimabromide revealed antibiotic activity towards Arthrobacter cristallopoietes .
