| Discovery Notes | This phage came from an environmental soil sample in front of the Purdue Horticulture building. The sample actually had 2 phages in it, but we selected the tinier plaque and isolated that phage. |
| Naming Notes | We combined both of our names to created a blended name. |

| Plaque Notes | This phage created very small plaques, so we had to dilute to 10^-8 to begin counting. The plaques formed are cloudy, with the outside edges being opaque instead of clearly defined. The overall plates look turbid. |
