Ihaka Te Tai Hakuene (1836 – 6 April 1887) was a 19th-century New Zealand tribal leader, lay reader and a Māori member of the New Zealand parliament.
Of Māori descent, he identified with the Ngā Puhi iwi. He was born in Rawhiti, Northland, New Zealand.[1] He represented the Northern Maori electorate from 1884 to 1887, when he died.[2]
A report suggests that he was accidentally poisoned by a dish containing tinned beef when dining in Auckland.[3][4]

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.
