Discovery NotesI discovered my phage on a partly cloudy day, about 21 degrees celsius. I found my phage under a tree, in an area that was not traversed. There was a layer of decomposing leaves over the soil. I dug about 2 inches into the soil to extract my soil. The soil was damp, but not wet.
Naming NotesThe phage name came from the fact that my phage had a long tail. The long tail reminded me and my friends of the movie, Ratatouille, where the main character is a rat. The rat's name is Remy, and he had a long tail like my phage.
