The Blue Duiker (Philantomba monticola) is a species in the genus Philantomba. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Peronospora paula is a downy mildew oomycete that parasitizes small herbaceous host plants, forming white to greyish sporulation on leaf undersides. This obligate biotrophic pathogen requires living host tissue to complete its complex life cycle, which includes both sexual and asexual reproduction. It is distributed in temperate regions across Europe and beyond where suitable hosts occur.
