| Discovery Notes | Weather was sunny with no cloud cover. At the time, the sprinklers were on and making the soil damp as I was collecting the sample.

| Naming Notes | I was having a Hugh Jackman movie marathon, and I happened to be watching Van Helsing while thinking about a name for my phage. |
