Abstract Warburganal and muzigadial are two new sesquiterpenes isolated from a medicinal plant. They are two of the strongest antifeedants against the monophagous African army worm; in addition they possess potent molluscicidal activity and other antibiotic properties. A general account is given on these aspects as well as the spectral data leading to determination of their structures.
