Zeno of Rhodes (Ancient Greek: Ζήνων; born not later than 220 BC) was an ancient Greek politician and historian (FGrH 523).[1]

Zeno mainly wrote about the history of Rhodes, and was a contemporary of Polybius.[2] Polybius made extensive use of Zeno's historical work, especially on the dealings Rhodes had with Lycia and ancient Rome.[3]

  1. 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.
