Selaginella involvens, Selaginella tamariscina, and Selaginella remotifolia were collected from the University Forest in Chiba, the University of Tokyo, Japan, and Selaginella biformis, Selaginella pennata, S. involvens, Selaginella chrysorrhizos, and unidentified Selaginella species (Selaginella sp.) were collected from northern Thailand. Lignin of all Selaginella species examined in this study was rich in syringyl nuclei. It was confirmed that a considerable portion of syringyl nuclei of Selaginella lignin formed syringylglycerol-β-aryl ether intermonomer linkages. The major diastereomer of arylglycerol-β-aryl ether intermonomer linkages of Selaginella lignins was the erythro-form exhibiting angiosperm lignin characteristics. In addition, lignins of S. involvens, S. tamariscina, and S. remotifolia collected from the University Forest in Chiba, the University of Tokyo, Japan, were isolated according to Björkman's procedure, and structural features of the lignins were spectrometrically analyzed. It was confirmed that lignin of Selaginella species, which are primitive pteridophytes, was typical guaiacyl-syringyl type as well as being similar to angiosperm lignin.
