| Discovery Notes | The phage was isolated from a soil sample taken from the bank of a pond in rural West Ottawa. The phage was extracted using the direct isolation method. The soil sample was dark, dense, and wet. |
| Naming Notes | This phage was named after a North American aquatic salamander. This amphibian was regularly caught in this pond at my grandmother's house by my siblings and I growing up, leading to the affectionate name "Mudpuppy pond". |
