| Discovery Notes | I found this phage in the front garden of where I was house-sitting at the time. This was in Observatory, Cape Town, South Africa. I scooped up some dirt on my way to the Phage course and isolated the phage from this. |
| Naming Notes | I named this phage "Triad" in recognition of the support structure I currently have in life at the moment. It reflects the two people that have kept me grounded, sane, and laughing throughout the chaotic house-sitting process. |
