| Discovery Notes | . |
| Naming Notes | "Veritas" (latin) is defined as Truth. I believe that this name fits my bacteriophage perfectly because we know close to nothing behind the functions of the phage's genome. By naming it Veritas, I wanted to show that as a biology major, we are always unraveling biological phenomena seeking the truth. |
