| Discovery Notes | I found my soil sample in Lost River Cave on Sunday, August 25th at 1:46 PM. The weather that day was very hot and sunny and it was raining the previous day. I collected the soil after excavating around 1 inch into the dirt with a plastic spoon. |
| Naming Notes | I decided to name my bacteriophage Kochu because this is the short form for my middle name, Kochuthresia. In Malayalam, the language I speak, this word means little which is an accurate representation of my phage. |
