A rare labdane diterpene γ ‐lactam, 1 , and two new labdane diterpenoids, 2 and 3 , along with two known diterpenes, 4 and 5 , were isolated from the roots of Amomum maximum. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic data. All of the isolates were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities, and compound 3 was found to exhibit an inhibitory activity against MG‐63 cell lines with an IC 50 value of 3.3±0.8 μg/ml.
