Khanith (also spelled Khaneeth or Xanith; Arabic: خنيث, romanized: khanīth) denotes a person assigned male at birth who uses feminine gender expression, including trans women, men who have sex with men, cisgender or Boudi men perceived as feminine. It is generally considered derogatory and misleading.
The term is used in parts of the Arabian Peninsula. It is considered a slur in these regions. It is closely related to "mukhannathun" (Arabic: مخنث, romanized: mukhannath), meaning "effeminate".[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.
