Etymology of Selaginella:
Gk. Salaginella is the name given by Pliny the Elder for an ancient plant name that was formerly called Selago. The name Salaginella means ‘little Selago’, but it is only distantly related to Selago (q.v.). Selaginella is an evergreen, low-growing, flowerless, moss-like plant, and relates to Lycopodium slago and Huperzia selago. In contrast, the genus Selago belongs to a family of flowering plants called Scrophulariaceae.
