Discovery NotesThe phage was discovered by the UMass campus pond. The side of the pond where the phage was found was towards the Morill buildings, between a shrub with pink ribbons and a bridge.
Naming NotesInspired by Pokemon! Marashtomp is a water Pokemon, and because we found our phage near a body of water it made sense to name our phage after a water Pokemon.
