Black-throated Mango

A large, striking hummingbird of tropical forests from southern Mexico to Argentina, black-throated mangos have dramatic sexual dimorphism — males display glittering black throat and breast with violet and green flanks and a bold purple tail, while females are white below with a central black stripe. Inhabiting forest edges, clearings, and gardens, they aggressively defend flowering trees. Males perform spectacular aerial display flights at treetop height. Listed as Least Concern across their broad neotropical range.

Pythium torulosum is an aquatic oomycete in the family Pythiaceae, known as a plant pathogen causing damping-off and root rot diseases in seedlings and crops. It produces zoospores for dispersal and thrives in wet soil and flooded growing conditions.
