| Discovery Notes | The sample was taken from a very recently submerged area around the outskirts of the pond, next to the drainage output. The soil was very fine, like silt, and quite soupy. |
| Naming Notes | This phage is named after my dog Cody, a Brittany. They have the same stumpy tail. Though the AKC recently reclassified Brittany's so that they are no longer technically spaniels, I believe them to be anatomically similar enough that neither Cody nor my phage will take offence. Also, the names Brittany and Cody were already taken. |
