2D NMR spectroscopic data are reported for 6-hydroxyfurodysinin-O-methyl la
ctone (3), 2-(2',4'-dibromophenoxy)-4,6-dibromo-anisole (4), and dehydroher
badysidolide (8), all isolated for the first time from Dysidea sp. Revised
NMR assignments are presented for the compounds dysetherin (1) and furodysi
nin-O-methyl lactone (2), previously reported from Dysidea herbacea. The fu
