Selaginella doederleinii
I got this from Jeff Benca from the University of Washington Greenhouse. Here's what he has to say about it This species is found in China, Malaysia, Borneo, and likely in many other countries of SE Asia. It has the largest microphylls of any species I've worked with, so it almost looks a strange-bit like a forking fern (Gleicheniaceae) meets a marine alga.,

Selaginella species 'Lita'
Very small prostrate species. I believe this could be S douglassii or S diffusa. I almost lost it so once I get enough I will attempt to get a positive id. In the picture the Selaginella is seen growing behind the Begonia.

A very large growing species that likes to climb. This is often confused with Selaginalla uncinata because of the common name Peacock Fern. They are nothing alike. S uncinata is a small species which remains prostrate for the most part.
