Cannabaceae

In Mandaeism, the dukrana (Classical Mandaic: ࡃࡅࡊࡓࡀࡍࡀ, lit.'remembrance; memorial') or dukrania (plural form) is a type of memorial ritual meal commemorating the dead.[1][2]

It is distinct from the zidqa brikha and lofani, which are two other types of ritual meal offered for the dead.[2]

  1. 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.
