Foldereid is a former municipality in the northern part of the old Nord-Trøndelag county in Norway. The 513-square-kilometre (198 sq mi) municipality[3] existed from 1886 until its dissolution in 1964. The municipality encompassed the area surrounding the inner part of the Folda fjord, the Innerfolda in what is now the municipalities of Nærøysund and Høylandet in Trøndelag county. The village of Foldereid, where the Foldereid Church is located, was the administrative centre of the municipality.[4]

The municipality of Foldereid was established on 1 October 1886 when it was separated from the large municipality of Kolvereid. Initially, the new municipality had 948 residents. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Foldereid was dissolved. The eastern Kongsmoen area (population: 221) was merged into the neighboring municipality of Høylandet and the remainder of the municipality (population: 817) was merged into the neighboring municipality of Nærøy.[5]
Name
[edit]The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Foldereid farm (Old Norse: Foldareið). The farm is named after the local fjord, Foldafjorden. The first element is the genitive case of the name of the local fjord, fold, which has an uncertain meaning. The last element is eið which means "isthmus", due to the fact that the Foldereid farm lies on a rather flat piece of land that is about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) wide between the Foldafjorden and an arm of the Bindalsfjorden to the north.[6]
Government
[edit]While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elected a mayor.[7]

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.
