Selaginella brachyblepharis

Selaginella brachyblepharis is a Bornean spikemoss described by van Alderwerelt van Rosenburgh in 1913; GBIF holds no wild occurrence records. Its conditions are inferred from the measured climate of a western Bornean reference point and from other lowland Bornean forest-floor Selaginella.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes are available. Like most Bornean Selaginella, it is assumed to grow on the shaded, humid forest floor or stream banks.

Unknown; the climate figures come from a reference point at about 430 m.
