| Discovery Notes | There appeared to be gold flecks, possibly glitter, in the soil that I harvested. The soil was collected from beneath crate-myrtle trees on the Speight side of the Baylor Sciences Building. |
| Naming Notes | The morphology appears similar to that of a bulls-eye, but since that name was already taken, I settled on the name "Game of Darts". While a bulls-eye is used in darts I also feel that it represents the way of life: no matter how good you are at throwing the darts, there is also an element of chance and even the possibility that what should work won't. |
