The Italian Federation decided that the first National record of the mixed relay should be quicker than 3:16s. So the best performance of 3:16.12 by Italian team of Davide Re (M), Giancarla Trevisan (W), Andrew Howe (M), Raphaela Lukudo (W) (3h3) at World Athletics Relays , International, in Yokohama (JPN), on 11 May 2019 was not considered as a NR.
Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
