Hello Jamur

Are you using a stereomicroscope with a ring light for top illumination?If so,could they be reflections comming off  a reflective surface

Was the agar in a glass covered dish?

Was the skin wet?

Good luck in finding an ID

Hi Jamur,

Identifying bacteria involves culturing and differential staining, fungi is often identified from the fruiting bodies.
