Town of ancient Lycia
Not to be confused with Tyriaeum.
Toriaeum or Toriaion was a town of ancient Lycia, inhabited during Roman and Byzantine times. During Roman times it was a Roman colony; during Byzantine times it seems to have appeared in the Synecdemus as Komistaraos (Ancient Greek: κώμης Τοριαίου, romanized: komis Toriaiou).[1]
Its site is located near Kozağacı, 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) south of Kızılcadağ and 32 kilometres (20 mi) north of Elmalı, in Asiatic Turkey.[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.
