Five already described triterpenes and steroids were isolated from the fungus Ganoderma applanatum. Its main components are friedelin, ergosta-7,22-dien-3-one and ergosta-7,22-dien-3β-ol, which are accompanied by small amounts of friedoolean-5-en-3-one and ergosterol. Palmitic acid is a further component.
