Ancient Greek town on coast of Asia Minor
Abarnis (Ancient Greek: Ἀβαρνίς),[1] also known as Abarnias, Abarnos (Ἄβαρνος),[2][3] and Aparnis (Ancient Greek: Ἀπαρνίς)[4] was a coastal town in ancient Mysia, on a promontory of the same name. Xenophon speaks of the place as where Conon, during his engagements with Lysander, stole the sails of the Spartan fleet, reorganized his fleet and fled to refuge with Evagoras I, while dispatching the Paralus to Athens to bring news from the battles.[5]
Its site is tentatively located near Çardak, Asiatic Turkey.[3][6]

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.
