WASP-32 (also known as TYC 2-1155-1) is a yellow main-sequence star in the constellation of Pisces. The star was given the formal name Parumleo in January 2020, Latin for small lion and referencing the national animal of Singapore.[5]
Star characteristics
[edit]The WASP-32 star is relatively depleted of lithium, which is common for massive stars hosting hot Jupiter planets.[4]
Planetary system
[edit]The "hot Jupiter" class planet WASP-32 b, later named Viculus, was discovered around WASP-32 in 2010.[4] It was found to orbit the parent star in prograde direction in 2014.[6]
The follow-up study utilizing transit timing variation analysis, have failed to find any, therefore have excluded existence of other massive planets around WASP-32 as in 2015.[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.
