Discovery NotesLildude was discovered near a creek with low growing plants at 26.11°C. The dirt was very dry, however, with many plant roots entangled in it.

Plaque NotesLildude has a temperate morphology, with turbid plaques. The plaques are about 1-2 mm in diameter, with a very high titer at 1.99 x 10^10 pfu/mL. Lildude is predicted to be cluster L and subcluster L1, but not proven to be because of lack of restriction digest.
