 Water mould   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Water moulds (variously Oomycota or Oomycetes) are a group of filamentous protists, physically resembling fungi.
Water moulds were originally classified as fungi, but are now known to have developed separately and show a number of differences.
Instead, water moulds are related to organisms such as brown algae and diatoms, making up a group called the stramenopiles.

 Introduction to the "Slime Molds"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Long classified together in the Myxomycophyta as part of the Fungi, slime "molds" are now known to be quite unrelated to the fungi.
Cellular slime molds are thus of great interest to cell and developmental biologists, because they provide a comparatively simple and easily manipulated system for understanding how cells interact to generate a multicellular organism.
Not only do slime molds produce few resistant structures (except for spores, which are often overlooked or unidentifiable), but they live in moist terrestrial habitats, such as on decaying wood or fresh cow dung, where their potential for preservation is low.
