| Discovery Notes | Found in my front yard. It was a dewy morning. Sample recovered about 1 inch below the surface. |
| Naming Notes | Saq is a word and phrase in Amharic that can be translated in two ways. It is commonly translated as "laughter" but can also mean "when I know." I chose this name because, throughout the process of discovering, isolating, and classifying my phage, there has been a lot of fun and laughter that has led me to more knowledge. And "when I know," anything is possible. |
