Progress Party or Party for Progress (Persian: حزب ترقی, romanized: Ḥezb-e taraqqi) was a fascist[4] political party in Iran led by Abdolhossein Teymourtash, described as the "spurious" party of government and functioning as a "vehicle for executing royal intentions" of Reza Shah.[2]
Modeled after Mussolini's National Fascist Party and Atatürk's Republican People's Party,[3] it subscribed ideas similar to the short-lived New Iran Party.[2]
With the fall of Abdolhossein Teymourtash in late 1932, the party soon melted away[2] and was outlawed on the grounds that it harbors republican sentiments.[3]

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.
