The phospholipid fatty acids from the sponge Spheciospongia cuspidifera were studied revealing the presence of the rare 10-octadecenoic acid (10-18:1) and a new 2-methoxyhexadecenoic acid. The phospholipid fatty acids from Thalysias juniperina were also studied revealing the presence of the hitherto unreported 18-hexacosenoic acid (18-26:1). These results tend to indicate that the biosynthetic pathway from 10-18:1 to 18-26:1 may be operative in nature. The phospholipid mixture from the sponges was also analyzed by 31P-NMR and shown to mainly consist of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylglycerol. Phosphatidylcholine was not found in the sponges analyzed in this work.
