Looks like it might be a Green Hydra - good catch!
Zeiss Standard WL (somewhat fashion challenged) & Wild M8

Yes, I think the same. It is some very young or a some kind of small green hydra

Nice catch, that is very interesting!

I would suggest, if possible, zooming a bit to get rid of the vignetting, and also trying to adjust the illumination when switching to a higher power objective.

Yes, sure. I know, but I have some issues with my 40x objective because
It has a lot of refraction when the diaphragm is opened making images very out of focus.

I’m investigating but this issue is related with the thickness between slide and cover slide.
I’m looking for a solution.
