| Found By | Mackenzie Cundiff |
| Year Found | 2022 |
| Location Found | Pellyton, KY United States |
| Finding Institution | Western Kentucky University |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 30°C |

| Discovery Notes | Pelly phage tends to produces small and large plaques. When a small or large plaque was picked to plate a mixed population was produced either way. |
| Naming Notes | The name for my phage came from the fact that the soil sample was collected from the land my family owns in Pellyton, Kentucky. I wanted something shorter so I named it Pelly. |
