Selaginella rupestris (Rock spike-moss) is a species of spike-moss occurring in dry rocky places in eastern North America including one locality in Greenland. It has a wide but sporadic range. In the absence of water it rolls into a ball for which it is also known as bird nest moss. Again when it comes in contact with water it opens up.
