In this work, we report the discovery and characterization of Garey24, a bacteriophage that forms medium-size plaques with halo rings isolated from a soil sample in Funes, Argentina. Its 41,522 bp circularly permuted genome contains 63 putative protein-coding genes. Based on gene content similarity, Garey24 was assigned to subcluster EA1.
