The Lyutenge (Russian: Лютенге; Yakut: Лүүтэҥкэ, Lüüteŋke, obsolete "Люютэнкэ") is a river in the Sakha Republic, Russia. It is a right tributary of the Lena and has a length of 140 km (87 mi).[1]
There are unusual rock formations by the river, the Turuuk Khaya Rocks, a protected area.[2]
Course[edit]
The river begins in the Byldanyany Lake, a small lake with a surface of 1 square kilometre (0.39 sq mi) located in the Lena Plateau.[3] Its upper course is in the southern part of Khangalassky District close to the A360 Lena Highway, not far from Aldan District.[4] It flows roughly southeastwards. The Lyutenge meets the right bank of the Lena by Kerdyom village, opposite the town of Pokrovsk and 1,577 km (980 mi) from the Lena's mouth.[5]
The Lyutenge River freezes between October and May. The main tributaries of the Lyutenge are the Kuon Kachah, Berdigasteheh, Kedige (Ulakhan-Kuudaly), Kuraanakh, Eselaheh and Kuuduman.[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.
