The Launceston Courier was a weekly newspaper published in Launceston, Tasmania, from 12 October 1840 to 20 March 1843.
History
[edit]The paper was established by John Knight (c. 1800 – 7 December 1860) of Carr Villa, Launceston, who was also a partner with John Pascoe Fawkner[1] and Henry Dowling in the Launceston Advertiser (1829–1846),[2] selling his interest to Benard Charles Jolly in September 1843.
In its final year it incorporated a section Launceston Courier and Teetotal Advocate.[3][4]
Not to be confused with the Weekly Courier, published in Launceston 1901–1935 by the company whose Examiner continues to this day.

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.
