| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 |
| Former names | Zander |
| Found By | Hannah Grzech |
| Year Found | 2017 |
| Location Found | Tampa, FL USA |
| Finding Institution | University of South Florida |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | No |
| Isolation Temperature | 34°C |
