Two Atlantic Cadlina species (Cadlina pellucida and Cadlina laevis) from European coasts have been subjected to chemical investigation. The new furanosesquiterpene laevidiene (1) has been isolated, together with other previously reported compounds, from C. laevis and its structure has been determined by spectroscopic methods. A dietary relationship between C. pellucida and Spongia agaricina is also suggested on the basis ofchemical analysis of their secondary metabolites. The dietary habits of the two Cadlina species are finally discussed in terms of radula morphology in the Chromodorididae family.

Abstract
Two Atlantic Cadlina species (Cadlina pellucida and Cadlina laevis) from European coasts have been subjected to chemical investigation. The new furanosesquiterpene laevidiene (1) has been isolated, together with other previously reported compounds, from C. laevis and its structure has been determined by spectroscopic methods. A dietary relationship between C. pellucida and Spongia agaricina is also suggested on the basis ofchemical analysis of their secondary metabolites. The dietary habits of the two Cadlina species are finally discussed in terms of radula morphology in the Chromodorididae family.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
