Anbay (Qatabanian: 𐩱𐩬𐩨𐩺, romanized: ʾNBY, ʾAnbāy) is a pre-Islamic deity who was originally worshipped in Qataban, in what is now Yemen.[1] He was regarded as a deity of justice and an oracle, in attendance to the moon deity Amm. Anbay's name was invoked in a range of legal matters, from filing paperwork for the legal title of a building to the royal regulation of water supplies.[2] He is often mentioned together with Haukim, another god of justice.

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.
