Subfamily: Alpharhabdovirinae

Genus: Thriprhavirus

Distinguishing features

Viruses assigned to the genus Thriprhavirus form a distinct monophyletic group based on well-supported Maximum Likelihood or Maximum Clade Credibility (MCC) trees inferred from complete L sequences. They have been detected in thrips (insects in the family Thripidae) and are most closely related to caligrhaviruses, which have been detected in sea lice.
