This review presents the structure, biological activity and, where applicable, references to the syntheses of 154 spongian and rearranged spongian diterpenoids isolated from marine sponges of the orders Dictyoceratida and Dendroceratida. There have been no studies of the biosynthesis of either spongian diterpenoids or their rearranged derivatives reported in the literature. The potential chemotaxonomic significance of spongian and rearranged spongian ditepenoids is discussed.
