Great find! 
Perhaps you can upload it to www.mushroomobserver.org?
And please keep looking for more of these, too.

Byrain said: I think someone should sequence these. 
Just being curious - do you expect anything else than P. cubensis?
But I agree. It should be documented none the less.
And if we could get some in situ shots of an eventual new find, that would be gorgeous.

Doc9151 said: Guzman describes psilocybe subcubensis as being similar to psilocybe cubensis but with smaller spores, are you saying he wrong?
His description was made prior to DNA sequences showed that P. subcubensis in reality is conspecific with P. cubensis. And that's kind of interesting, since quite a bit of the existing mushroom taxonomy often is based on spore sizes being a crucial factor. I'm really curious how things will look when revised according to DNA sequencing. Maybe the old concepts will look somewhat ridiculous.

Guzman et al published a paper on Psilocybe phylogeny some years back.

elasticaltiger said: I honestly wonder if the massive number of cubensis home growers is spreading spores into the air causing a massive spread of cubensis all across the world.
Not really surprised were seeing it show up in places where we don't expect it.
I think chances are that the species has a long history on the African continent, but not necessarily in a sociocultural aspect.

I haven't read this thoroughly but perhaps you might find a suitable answer here:
