Present work is the systematic documentation of black mildew's representing to contemporary research in mycology highlighting issues of untapped diversity and ecology of Black mildews fungi. Each taxon is well described with appropriate line drawings, photo-micrographs, identification key, and specific ecological note. The mounting technique of the black mildews is interesting and speciality of this work. As such, this work provides a baseline data to ease their identification in the field, as well as in the laboratory. This work will become asset for the researchers, teachers, students and foresters.
