Abstract
Elatinic acid, the B-ring monomethyl ester ofsquamatic acid, and methyl barbatate are new secondary products in the lichen genus Haematomma. Although the chemistry of the monotypic Haematommataceae is complex and poorly known, these are the first compounds recognized as unique to the family. Elatinic acid is reported from three species, helping to clarify the taxonomy of two common ones, and methyl barbatate is reported from one species.
