[[:file:oiloil-and-oilsource-rock-correlations_fig8-9.png|Figure 5]] shows an example of an unusual group of alkanes called X-compounds. They contain one or more methyl branches near the middle of a long-chain hydrocarbon. These compounds originate from primitive cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) and are diagnostic of Precambrian sources.
