In an investigation in New Zealand of the farm livestock neurological disorder paspalum staggers, one of the principle toxins in the paspalum ergot was identified as paspalinine. A second major toxin isolated from the ergot was called paspalitrem A, and was found to be identical to the ergot toxin Coleet al. (3) called compound A.
