Shlama beth Qidra (Šlama, daughter of Qidra, Classical Mandaic: ࡔࡋࡀࡌࡀ ࡐࡕ ࡒࡉࡃࡓࡀ, romanized: Šlama pt Qidra) was a female Mandaean priest and scribe who was active around 200 AD. Her name is found in the colophons of Left Ginza manuscripts, which do not bear the name of Zazai of Gawazta.[1]
Shlama beth Qidra is the earliest Mandaean scribe named in Mandaean colophons, predating Zazai of Gawazta (fl. 270 AD) by a few generations.[2]: 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.
