Update 20-Oct-19

Another quiet month with only 13 new inclusions being added to iNaturalist in September 2019 as effort has been directed towards the 'observing transiting exoplanets' project (https://www.researchgate.net/project/Observing-transiting-exoplanets-with-a-small-robotic-telescope). Note that identifications are provisional - any help that can be provided to refine/correct the identifications would be greatly appreciated!

A short article has been published describing the techniques that I am using to image the inclusions using a relatively inexpensive stereomicroscope and the freeware ImageJ image processing package.

If you have any comments on the identifications uploaded so far, please update iNaturalist accordingly!

Further inclusions are planned to be uploaded this month.
