Six aromatic compounds were isolated from the endophytic fungus Colletotrichum sp. of Cephalotaxus hainanensis Li [Cephalotaxus mannii Hook. f.]. Their structures were determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic methods. The compound 2 was the enantiomer of compound 1. The compound 4 was the epimeride of the compound 3. The compounds 1, 2, 4 and 5 were evaluated for cytostatic activity against HL-60 and PC-3 cells. Crown
