| Discovery Notes | Very close to the backyard of my home, right up against brush and trees, about an inch behind the where the brush and tree line start, no water present nearby, lots of small animal life such as birds, rabbits, and bugs. Very little human foot traffic, ground is not sloped. |
| Naming Notes | I chose the name Antheia due to my love for Greek Mythology. Antheia was very fitting since she is the goddess of vegetation, flowers, and swamps. Since my phage was derived from the earths soil, and found near a lot of vegetation, this name is very fitting for my phage. |
