| Discovery Notes | The phage was obtained from a soil sample. The temperature that day was very hot, coming in at about 81°F. Nonetheless, the sample was collected in the shade. The soil was damp, and looked lively and rich in color. It was collected about 1 in deep into the soil, and that was the first soil sample collected, |
| Naming Notes | The name of this phage came from its discovery site. The soil collection came from an animal burrow, which was likely a snake hole so, that is where the name derives from |
