| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | Not entered |
| GPS Coordinates | 38.23373 N, 83.48119 W Map |
| Naming Notes | Timidus, meaning "timid" in Latin, is named for the behavior of the phage. The turbidity of the plaques makes them hard to see, and thus the phage can be described as "shy", or, in other words, "timid." |
