| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Unknown |
| Isolation Temperature | 37°C |

| Discovery Notes | Soil sample was obtained from an area about a meter from the walking/biking trail with light foot traffic. The soil itself was dry, taken from about 5cm under a fallen tree limb. The surrounding area was wooded, with no buildings or concrete in sight. Sample was taken from an area approximately 30m from a small standing creek. Air temperature was approximately 30 degrees Celsius. |
| Naming Notes | This phage was the clear plaque mutant that appeared as I was isolating my original phage, called Jeckyll, which produced turbid plaques. Thus, I initially named the phage JeckyllCM, for Jeckyll Clear Mutant |
