| Discovery Notes | Location (general descriptor)- PGH Zoo near the sea lion exhibit Date and time of collection- Saturday, August 31, 2019 GPS coordinates 40°29'3''N, 79°55'20''W Pittsburgh, PA, 960ft Elevation The soil was damp at the time of collection and much of the top layer of the soil was covered in vegetation and mulch. |
| Naming Notes | My lab partner and I took inspiration for the iconic Disney channel tv show: Phineas and Ferb. Although I wanted to name by phage "Phineas," unfortunately this name was already taken. So instead, I took inspiration from this name and my love of the musical artist "Finneas" in the naming process -- resulting in "Finneas" the phage. However, since this name was too close to "Phineas" I just changed it to the name of another artist I really like, Ruel. |
