Trino Cruz Seruya (born 1960) is a Gibraltarian poet.
Biography
[edit]Born in Gibraltar in 1960. Of mixed Sephardi, English, Italian and Spanish ancestry,[1] he studied in Liverpool and London before returning to his birthplace in 1983.[2] He has been called a main example of the Spanish-language poetry both in Gibraltar and in the wider scope of the territories circling the Strait of the same name.[3] Commentator of Maghrebian poetry,[2] he has also translated works by authors such as Hassan Najmi and Saadi Yousef.[2][1] One of the defining traits of his literary work is miscegenation.[4] Trino Cruz has given the opinion that "Gibraltarian literature is a literature nonata" (not yet born),[5][6] attributing that status to political forces blocking the "creative instincts".[7]

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.
