| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 37°C |

| Discovery Notes | The soil sample was obtained from inside of a tree stump that was right next to a stream, located on Norlin Quad. |
| Naming Notes | The first lysate obtained from the soil sample was pitch black despite centrifuging and being filtered through a 0.2 micrometer filter. Thus, we named the phage Tenebris which is latin for darkness. |
