| Discovery Notes | This virus was discovered in a large field by a creek with a significant amount of vegetation. The field also received a small amount of precipitation the night before it was discovered. This virus was collected approximately 9 inches below the ground, and the soil was moist, clumped, and it contained a large amount of organic matter. |
| Naming Notes | This virus is named after my grandma, who lives in Johnston, IA. Her name is Myrna, and she was attacked by a bird when she was a little kid. Ever since then, she hasn't liked birds, so her nickname is Myrnabird. |
