| Discovery Notes | This phage was found from a soil sample collected on 5/3/18, 8.28am. The location was Glendene, Auckland, New Zealand. The soil was clay-like, hard, clumpy. It contained yellow, white, brown coloured soil clumped together, as well as a few small rocks and roots. It had been softened due to the dampness of the morning dew. Tools used to scrape and gather the sample included a nearby stone used to scrape the soil from the surface level. The location was a pile of soil in a backyard, surrounded by overgrown grass and a few trees. The pile of soil is known to have been dug out and moved from another location a few metres away. The pile of soil was bare and not covered much with plant growth. During the time of collection, conditions were also noted. Weather: clear skies during an early morning sun rise. Temperature: 18 degrees celsius. Humidity: 100%. Wind: 3km/h. |
| Naming Notes | Caramel is a dessert liked by many people. The word also has a nice sound to it when said. Furthermore, the general brown colour of caramel showed likeness to the colour of soil which is usually a shade of brown. |
