Bobak Marmot

The Bobak Marmot (Marmota bobak) is a species in the genus Marmota. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Distributed across Russia and Ukraine.

Botryotinia calthae is an ascomycete fungus in the family Sclerotiniaceae, the sexual stage of a Botrytis-like pathogen that infects marsh marigold (Caltha palustris) in wetland habitats. It forms sclerotia in infected plant tissue that persist in soil to initiate future infections. As a necrotrophic pathogen, it kills host tissue and then feeds on the resulting dead material.
