| Discovery Notes | Site was small and vaguely open. There is a high amount of foot traffic at the site area, and is right next to a road. No surrounding vegetation (except for some random bushes). At the time of discovery, the soil was very moist and slightly saturated. |
| Naming Notes | My sister has a cyst on her liver that we found out about several years ago and we named it Poco. It reminds me of the bulls-eye/turbid plaque pattern that can sometimes occur in phages so that is why I wanted to name my phage after Poco as PocoJr |
