Two new compounds, pyracrimycins A and B, have been isolated from a Streptomyces species named Streptomyces eridani Coronelli et al. n. sp. The morphological and physiological characteristics of this strain are described in the present paper together with the production and properties of the two metabolites. Pyracrimycin B is biologically inactive whereas pyracrimycin A is active in vitro against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
