The phrase "a selected" is not correct and usable in written English as it is incomplete and lacks context.
It can be used when referring to a specific group or item that has been chosen from a larger set, but it typically requires additional context to be meaningful.
Example: "We will review a selected group of candidates for the position."
Alternatives: "a chosen" or "a specific".
