The monogeneric family Selaginellaceae is made up of about 700 species distributed throughout the world, but the most concentrated part is in tropical and subtropical areas. According to the most recent infrageneric classification of the genus , six or seven subgenera can be recognised and perhaps 700 species. The genus is monophyletic, cosmopolitan, characterised by the presence of rhizophores, ligulated leaves and has a reniform adaxial sporangia with two type of spores (heterospory).
The records of two species are reported, that is (Kunze) A.Braun and A.Braun ex Kuhn, which are new for the state of Senegal. Ecological traits, especially related to the habitat and altitude-elevation distribution, are also described for these species. Both species were collected in the south of Senegal, more precisely in the region of Kédougou for and in the regions of Kédougou, Tambacounda and Ziguinchor for
单种科卷柏科由分布于世界各地的约700种植物组成，但最集中的区域在热带和亚热带地区。根据该属最新的属下分类，可识别出六或七个亚属，约700种。该属为单系、广布，其特征为具根托、有叶舌的叶，并有具两种类型孢子（异型孢子）的肾形小孢子囊。
报道了两个物种的记录，即（昆泽）A. 布劳恩和A. 布劳恩 前库恩，它们对塞内加尔来说是新物种。还描述了这些物种的生态特征，特别是与栖息地和海拔分布相关的特征。这两个物种均采集于塞内加尔南部，更确切地说是在凯杜古地区采集到了，在凯杜古、坦巴昆达和济金绍尔地区采集到了 。
