The Sanjak of Jerusalem (Ottoman Turkish: سنجاق قدس, romanized: Sancâk-ı Kudüs; Arabic: سنجق القدس, romanized: Sanjaq al-Quds) was an Ottoman sanjak that formed part of the Damascus Eyalet for much of its existence.[1] It was created in the 16th century by the Ottoman Empire after it took over what is now called Israel following the 1516–1517 Ottoman–Mamluk War.[2] It was detached from the Syrian eyalet and placed directly under the Ottoman central government, first for a brief period in 1841, and again in 1854.[3] An independent province, the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem, was created in 1872.[4] It ceased to exist in 1917 during the Great War as a result of British progress on the Middle Eastern front,[5] when it became a British-administered occupied territory.[6]

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.
