Isotoma delta

Thanks
I really appreciate it, Frans. My friend, Ferdy Christant, has been telling me all about you and your work. I am hoping I can get a microscope in the near future so I can get a better look at these cuties!

Great!
What you can do in the mean time. Get a cheap clip-on macrolens for your smartphone. I have done some tests in the past and got reasonable results with a Samsung tablet camera of (only) 8Mpix + clip-on lens. The lens (set) costed me 3 Euro ;-)
