Aymar the Monk (French: Aymar Le Moine, Latin: Haymarus Monachus), also known as Aimery[1] or Aimaro Monaco dei Corbizzi (? in Florence – October 1202 in Palestine), was Archbishop of Caesarea and Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem.
Biography
[edit]The noble Corbizzi family was originally from Fiesole in Tuscany. From 1171 to 1177 he was magister and chancellor of the patriarch of Jerusalem Amalric of Nesle. [2] At the time this prelate of Florentine origin was simply called "Monachus",[3] the name "Aymar" and belonging to the Corbizzi family are instead considered historically unfounded later additions.
He was archbishop of Caesarea in Palestine from 1181 until 1194, when the clergy of the Holy Sepulchre, who desired a patriarch residing in the east, elected him the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, the latter seat vacant from 1191. The Monk held this position until his death. He may have held the position of archbishop of Caesarea together with that of the Patriarch for three years, until 1197. [2] He was present at the siege of Acre and described it in a poem entitled De expugnata Accone liber tetrastichus seu rithmus de expeditione ierosolimitana. [4]

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.
