1. saprolegnia

   Saprolegnia is a genus of water molds, often known as cotton molds, that are typically found in fresh water and damp soil. They are a type of fungi that are known to cause diseases in fish and amphibians, resulting in significant loss in aquaculture. These organisms produce hyphae (branching filamentous structures) and reproduce both sexually and asexually. Saprolegnia species are also characterized by their method of forming spores.
