TSR subsequently published several supplements and adventures for Spelljammer, including Greyspace in 1992, a 96-page softcover book written by Nigel Findley, with cover art by Tom Baxa, interior illustrations by David O. Miller, and cartography by John Knecht.[1]

One thought on “Cannabaceae

  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.
