Abstract. An actinomycete strain, isolated from leek roots
and showing a verticillate arrangement of sporophores, was
classified by numerical methods as belonging to the cluster
Streptoverticillium baldaccii. Relationships with previously
described species of the genus are discussed. The organism
produces metacycloprodigiosin, undecylprodigiosin, 6,8-
dimethoxy-3,methylisocoumarin, 2,5-furanmethanol, Nb-
acetyltryptamine and a diketopiperazine compound.
