Selaginella arizonica, commonly known as Arizona spikemoss,[1] is a species of spikemoss in the family Selaginellaceae.[2] It is native to Arizona, USA, where it can be found in rock crevices, or on gravel, sandstone, igneous, or limestone substrates.[3]

Selaginella arizonica plants are prostrate, freely branching, and matted. Their stems range from 5 to 20 cm (2.0 to 7.9 in) in length with short ultimate branches and tips that turn slightly upwards. When these plants are young, they are bright green. However, as they age, they become greyer in color.[3]
