The total lipid fatty acids from the white shrimp Penaeus setiferus were found to contain several unusual dienoic fatty acid species. These included two methylene‐interrupted species: Δ11, 14‐C 18∶2 (18∶2ω4) and δ13, 16‐C 20∶2 (20∶2ω4). Also found were several non‐methylene‐interrupted dienoic fatty acids including δ7, 11 and Δ7, 13‐C 20∶2 , Δ7, 13‐C 21∶2 , Δ7, 13, Δ7, 15, Δ9, 13, Δ9, 15, and Δ7, 17‐C 22∶2 . Many minor C 20∶2 non‐methylene‐interrupted dienes were found but could not be unequivocally characterized.
