For g≥2,j=1,...,g and n≥g+j we exhibit infinitely many new rigid and extremal effective codimension j cycles in Mg,n, the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli of n-pointed curves of genus g. The extremal cycles constructed correspond to the strata of quadratic differentials and projections of these strata under forgetful morphisms. We further show the same holds for k-differentials with k≥3 if the strata are irreducible. We compute the class of the divisors in the case of quadratic differentials which contain the first known examples of effective divisors on Mg,n with negative ψi coefficients.
