Abstract

Genomic and antigenic characterization of the Salehabad virus, a species of the genus , and four other unclassified phleboviruses (Arbia, Adria, Arumowot and Odrenisrou) demonstrate a serological and genetic relation to one another and are distinct from the eight other recognized species within the genus . We propose to incorporate these four unclassified viruses as part of the species complex within the genus. The known geographical distribution for the members of this species group includes southern Europe, Central Asia and Africa.
