Senožeče (pronounced [sɛnɔˈʒeːtʃɛ]; Italian: Senosecchia,[2] German: Senosetsch[3]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Divača in the Littoral region of Slovenia.[4]
Name[edit]
Senožeče was attested in historical sources as Sehenossecsch in 1217, Senosensach in 1297, and Sinesecha in 1310, among other spellings. The name is derived from the plural demonym *Sěnožęťani 'residents of a hayfield or meadow' (from the common noun *sěnožętъ '(mountain) meadow, meadow mown once a year').[5]
Church[edit]
The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to Saint Bartholomew and belongs to the Koper Diocese.[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.
