The Frutz is a river of Vorarlberg, Austria, a tributary of the Rhine.

The Frutz is 19 km (12 mi) long. Its source is in the Frutz Alpine shieling. It flows in western direction through the valley Laternsertal [ceb; de; sv] in the area of Feldkirch to the Rhine. At Rankweil, the river divides into a side and main arm.[1] The smaller one has an own name called Ehbach. Both arms discharge separately at Koblach into the Rhine.

  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.
