The authors observed the Southern δ-Aquariids from the Observatory of Roque de Los Muchachos on La Palma. The shower peaked around a solar longitude of 126.2 deg (2000.0) with ZHR = 32+-1.5. This peak coincided with a dip in r. Just like Arlt & Dubietis (2004) we checked the IMO database for SDA-observations in the years 1997-2002. We found this dip in r around the shower maximum in nearly every year with sufficient data. The difference in r-value found between northern- and southern-hemisphere data johca_aqu_arlt2004 may be explained as the southern-hemisphere data was essentially collected around the time of the maximum. The video results show a peak in activity approx. 24 hours earlier than the visual results.
