36P17.1 is an unnamed period 17 oscillator, consisting of a honey farm predecessor, hassled by 4 eaters. It is the smallest known period 17 oscillator in terms of minimum population, though 54P17.1 still has a slightly smaller bounding box.
It was discovered by Matthias Merzenich in September 2014[1] with a modified version of Dean Hickerson's drifter search, that facilitates discovery of symmetric oscillators.[2]
