| Discovery Notes | The soil sample was taken at night from the dirt behind a shrub outside Madrigrano Residence Hall. The soil was taken at a depth of one inch and the temperature was 68 degrees F. |
| Naming Notes | Because our phage's plaques have a distinct halo, we named it after the Catholic saint Bartholomew. |
