According to seminal work of Kontsevich, the unstable homology of the mapping class group of a surface can be computed via the homology of a certain Lie algebra. In a recent paper, S. Morita analyzed the abelianization of this Lie algebra, thereby constructing a series of candidates for unstable classes in the homology of the mapping class group. In the current paper, we show that these cycles are all nontrivial, representing homology classes in Hk(M1kQ)Sk for all k ⩾ 5 satisfying k ≡ 1 mod 4. Here M1k is the mapping class group of a genus one surface with k punctures.
