Today's Nature post is Papyrus. 😄

Native to Africa, this leafless, flowering plant is an aquatic member of the Cyperaceae family and was used for creating paper, boats, and much more. Spiritually, it represents healing, protection, life, creation, and the element of air.

Examples of plant propagules adhered to the skin of anurans collected in wetlands of the southern Brazilian coastal plain. (a) Pseudis minuta individual with a floating aquatic plant Azolla filiculoides adhered to the skin at the time of capture; (b) Boana pulchella individual with Cyperaceae achenes adhered to the skin (highlighted with red circles); (c–i) Propagules found in the samples obtained by washing the skin of the anurans: (c) spore of Bryum densifolium showing signs of protonema development (scale 50 μm); (d) megasporangium of Azolla sp. (scale 100 μm); (e) whole floating aquatic plant Wolffia brasiliensis (scale 1 mm); (f) achene of Cyperus lanceolatus (scale 200 μm); (g) cypsela of Symphyotrichum squamatum (scale 500 μm); (h) capsule of Xyris jupicai (scale 200 μm); (i) caryopse of Eragrostis sp.
