A large number of remarkable studies on the secondary metabolites of fungi have been conducted in recent years. This review gives an overview of one hundred and sixty-seven molecules with novel skeletons and their bioactivities that have been reported in seventy-nine articles published from 2013 to 2017. Our statistical data showed that endophytic fungi and marine-derived fungi are the major sources of novel bioactive secondary metabolites.
