Selaginella hallieri

A Bornean spikemoss described by Alderwerelt van Rosenburgh in 1913. It has no wild GBIF records, so these conditions come from one representative everwet lowland Borneo climate site and general knowledge of rainforest Selaginella: warm, shaded, constantly moist and very humid.
