This is a tiny, low growing herbaceous plant that forms small tufts at the bases of fallen trees and boulders.[4] The creeping stem is up to 10 cm (3.9 in) long and produces roots along its length. It has ascending branches up to 5 cm (2.0 in) long.[5][6] The leaves are very small, up to 2 mm (0.08 in) in length.[5][6] The sporangia are borne in the upper leaf axils.[4]
The family Selaginellaceae is considered to be primitive and is often be referred to as a "fern ally".[4] This species has been described numerous times – the first description was published in 1789 by the Swedish botanist Anders Jahan Retzius who gave it the name Lycopodium ciliare.[2][3] Several other 19th century botanists, including Robert Brown and Carl Ernst Otto Kuntze, also published this species under various binomial combinations.[3] The currently accepted name, Selaginella ciliaris, was provided by Antoine Frédéric Spring and published in 1843.[2][3]
