2 Corynanthe Alkaloids Alstovenine/venenatine: isolated from the Bark of Alstonia Venenata (poison devil tree) along with various others alkaloids (reserpine, yohimbine ). Traditionally used in ayurvedic medicine. Alstonia venenata Me Me Me2C venenatine Me2C alstovenine Terpenoid indoles alkaloids Corynanthe type alkaloids found in many other plant species (e.g. reserpine in Rauwolfia serpentina) 1
