Selaginella, commonly known as spike moss, does not have true leaves or branches like higher plants. Instead, it features small, scale-like structures called microphylls that are arranged in a spiral pattern along its stems. These adaptations allow Selaginella to thrive in various environments, primarily in moist, shaded areas. It is a member of the Lycophyta division, which is distinct from flowering plants and ferns.
Selaginella bifida was created in 2009.
Selaginella apoda was created in 1753.
Selaginella and Dryopteris .
Yes, Selaginella have megaspores and microspores not seeds like the naked seeds of Conifers and Cycads and the Seeds of Angiosperms. Selaginella belong to the Clubmoss Group Lycopodiopsida see related link.

Selaginella is a genus of plants commonly known as spike mosses. They are found in a variety of habitats, including tropical rainforests, temperate forests, and even deserts. Selaginella species are typically found in moist, shaded areas with high humidity, such as forest floors or rock crevices.
in Selaginella sp a strobilus contains both megaspores and microspore but in Licopoium sp they are in seperate strobili OWTCA-kln.Sl
Lycopodium is Isophyllous,Homosporous.It has monocious gametophyte and do not have rhizophores.But Selaginella is Dimorphism, heterosporous.It has dioecious gmetophyte and rhizophores
Yes it is present in india.
Lycopodium has only one size of spores said to homosporous while Selaginella has both a microspore that grows into the male gametophyte and macrospores that produces female gametophytes. Selaginella has ligules at the base of each microphyl
no selaginella has megaspores and microspores
Lycopodium is a clubmoss which is homosporous
