| Isolation Host | Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 |
| Found By | Meghan Keleher |
| Year Found | 2012 |
| Location Found | Hartford, CT USA |
| Finding Institution | Trinity College |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | Not entered |
| GPS Coordinates | 41.75 N, 72.69 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | Soil collected in front of the Trinity College library on a patch of mostly dead grass. The soil was light to medium colors brown on surface but much darker once dug a little further down. Soil sample taken near a storing drain and sewer. No sprinklers nearby. |
| Naming Notes | Evanesce was chosen as it is a synonym for disappearing. When the EM picture was being taken of my phage, the tails would begin to disappear before the picture could be taken. |

| Plaque Notes | Phage is clear with a slight bull's eye. Faint turbid "halo". Mean diameter 24 hours post-infection was 0.8mm. 48 hours post- infection the phage grew in size to about 2.4mm and had a dark bull's eye in the middle with a lighter dark ring around the bull's eye and then a clear halo surrounding that. |
