| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |

| GPS Coordinates | Unavailable |
| Discovery Notes | The sample was taken from a backyard patch of grass and soil. The sprinklers were on in the morning so the soil was still a little wet. The soil was removed from the patch of grass and was hard to pick up but soft in the bag it was placed into. |
| Naming Notes | The name was randomly picked by a favorite color and the shape of the phage having rings. The morphology of the plaques appeared to be circles with little rings around, almost like a donut shape. |

| Plaque Notes | Plaques are formed with a central spot accompanied by one associated ring, double-ringed plaques have been observed though it is uncommon. Plaques not near other plaques are best a creating the characteristic rings, though plaques in close proximity do form the rings they are much smaller. |
