The Senate of Republika Srpska (Serbian Cyrillic: Сенат Републике Српске, romanized: Senat Republike Srpske) is consultative body of the highest institutions of Republika Srpska, an entity within Bosnia and Herzegovina. Its organization and functions are regulated with the Constitution of the Republika Srpska and Law on the Senate of Republika Srpska. According to the initial text of the law of 1997 only Serbs could be appointed as members of the senate. The Venice Commission stated in 2001 that this was discriminatory and obviously unconstitutional.[1] The law has been changed in 2010 and allowed people of any ethnicity to be appointed as members of the senate. Almmost all members remain Serbs.
Present or past members of the Senate of Republika Srpska include:
- Aleksa Buha
- Elena Guskova
- Nenad Kecmanović
- Svetozar Mihajlović
- Borislav Paravac
- Nikola Poplašen
- Radmila Smiljanić
- Milan Tomić[citation needed]
- Aleksandar Vulin[2]

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.
