| Discovery Notes | Our phage was collected in an environmental sample containing puddle water from beside a road outside of Hughes Hall at Gonzaga University. Within it was soil, and some organic material from dead leaves. The majority of the sample was dirty brown water. |
| Naming Notes | We wanted to name our bacteriophage after the location in which it was discovered. Unfortunately, the English word "Puddle" had already been used to name a phage, so we used the French translation, "Flaque" as an alternative--French being a language we were both fond of. |
