| Discovery Notes | This phage was discovered from an enriched isolation. It was found in soil that was 73 degrees F and on the surface. The soil sample also came from the base of a pine tree. |
| Naming Notes | We decided on the name Longacauda because the two separate words mean long tail in Latin. |
