Miocamycin is a macrolide antibiotic.[1] It has a spectrum activity similar to that of Erythromycin, but shows higher antimicrobial effect against certain bacteria including Legionella pneumophila (the causative agent of Legionnaires' Disease), Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma urealyticum.[1] In-vivo studies have further expounded on Miocamycin's efficacy, reporting that the medication is more effective than in-vitro data suggests.[2]

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.
