Baron Bethell, of Romford in the County of Essex, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in the 1922 Dissolution Honours for the banker and Liberal politician Sir John Bethell, 1st Baronet, who had previously represented Romford and East Ham North in Parliament.[2][3] He had already been created a Baronet, of Romford in the County of Essex, on 26 June 1911.[1]
The title descended from father to son until the early death of the third Baron, in 1967. The late Baron was succeeded by his first cousin, the fourth Baron. He was the son of William Gladstone Bethell, third son of the first Baron. Lord Bethell was a historian and Conservative politician.
As of 2017[update], the titles are held by his eldest son, the fifth Baron, who succeeded in 2007[4] and was elected in 2018 to sit in the House of Lords as one of the 92 representatives of the hereditary peers.[5]

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.
