01First description
Aeruginascin was described from Inocybe aeruginascens rather than from a Psilocybe species. Gartz reported an analysis of aeruginascin in fruit bodies of that mushroom in 1989, and Jensen, Gartz and Laatsch reported it in Planta Medica in 2006 as a trimethylammonium analogue of psilocybin from the same host.
Neither paper is available in abstract or full text through the indexes consulted here, and both are cited for the reports their titles describe.

02Occurrence in Psilocybe cubensis
Aeruginascin is among the six tryptamines quantified in Psilocybe cubensis fruiting bodies in a 2026 study, so its presence is not confined to the genus it was first described from. That source is cited at abstract level.
03Scope of this record
This record covers chemical identity and the published history of the compound. It does not describe effects, preparation or dose, and nothing here is guidance for use.
