Viruses in this genus form a distinct clade within the family Caliciviridae (Figure 4. Caliciviridae). ORF2 encodes the major capsid protein that is translated as a larger precursor protein before cleavage into the mature VP1, a feature that appears unique to this genus.
The strains in this genus form a distinct clade within the family Caliciviridae (Figure 4. Caliciviridae).

The strains in this genus form a distinct clade within the family Caliciviridae (Figure 4. Caliciviridae). Viruses in this genus have only been detected in Atlantic salmon and belong to a single species, Nordland virus.

The strains in this genus form a distinct clade within the family Caliciviridae (Figure 4. Caliciviridae). ORF1 of minovirus encodes a polyprotein that shares 21% amino acid identity with caliciviruses in the genus Salovirus, which also have been detected in fish species, followed by 11% to 14% amino acid identity with mammalian caliciviruses.
