A new butyrolactone, 7″-hydroxybutyrolactone III (1) and three new cycloheptanetriones, terretrione A-C (2-4), together with five known compounds, butyrolactone I, cyclo(Leu-Pro), cyclo(Val-Pro), cyclo(Ile-Pro), cyclo(Phe-Pro), were isolated from mangrove-associated marine fungus Aspergillus terreus. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on
