<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>A novel C30 vanadyl alkylporphyrins, 13,15-ethano-3-ethyl-2,7,12,18-tetramethylporphyrin (i.e., 8-nor-deoxophylloerythroetioporphyrin; 8-nor-DPEP) has been isolated from a Middle Miocene siliceous shale. The structure of intact vanadyl porphyrins was determined by X-ray crystallography. The structure suggests it to be originated from specific chloropigments such as chlorophylls a2, b2, c2, and c3 or bacteriochlorophyll a, hence potentially being a biomarker of specific photoautotrophs.</jats:p>
