| Discovery Notes | This soil sample was collected from a lake near Cosco Junction, called Dry Lake. It's basically a dried out lake. The soil was semi-wet at time of collection and was taken from the lake bed on the westward side of the lake. |
| Naming Notes | Since the original owner of this soil sample decided to abandon it, I decided to name the phage Erémos, which is Greek for abandoned or alone. |
