Need Help Identifying

I bought this plant from a grocery store. The tag only said, "Assorted foliage. Likes lots of bright light. Allow soil to dry between waterings." I don't know what it is, but it does not seem to actually like much light. Any time I leave it in direct light it quickly begins turning yellow and crispy. Any idea what this plant is?

That is a temperamental fern ... or is it considered a moss? I forget. What I DO know is humidity is the name of the game.

If you think you're providing enough humidity- bump it up. It also hates direct sun... but you figured that out fast.
