Selaginella mayeri Hieron. (Selaginellaceae), a new record for Thailand

Abstract

Selaginella mayeri is widely distributed in Southeast Asia and has not been reported in Thailand. We found two collections of it from Pattalung and Yala Provinces of Thailand, representing new records for this country. Selaginella mayeri could be distinguished from other long-creeping Southeast Asian species distributed in Thailand by the exauriculate axillary and ventral leaves and short flabellate lateral branchlets.
