You have to use selected and unselected event which are fired for every selected item in group selection.

var selected = new Array();
$("#selectable").selectable({
    selected: function(event, ui){            
        selected.push(ui.selected.id);
    },
    unselected: function(event, ui){
        //ui.unselected.id
    }
});
