Abstract
Two marine opisthobranchs,Archidoris tuberculata from Asturias (N. Spain) andArchidoris carvi from Patagonia (S. Argentina), contain in their dorsum diasteroisomeric ichthyotoxic acylglycerols esterified in position 1-sn by antipodal diterpenoid acids.

Surprisingly, recording CD spectra of verrucosin-A and-B (1 and 2) positive, curves, analogous with those of 8 and 9, were obtained. An erroneous observation of the X-ray model of 2 led to assign11 a rearrangedent-isocopalane skeleton to the diterpenoid residue whereas, correctly, verrucosins should derive from an isocopalane precursor as shown by formulas 1 and 2.
