Lloviu virus (LLOV)

The species "Lloviu cuevavirus" was recently suggested to be included in the genus ("Cuevavirus"). It is suggested to be the taxonomic home for the recently disovered agent Lloviu virus (LLOV).[1] LLOV is a distant relative of the commonly known Ebola virus and Marburg virus.

Use of term

The species "Lloviu cuevavirus" is a virological taxon (i.e. a man-made concept) that was suggested in 2010 to be included in the suggested genus "Cuevavirus", family Filoviridae, order Mononegavirales.[1] The species was suggested to have a single virus member, Lloviu virus (LLOV).[1] The name "Lloviu cuevavirus" is derived from Cueva del Lloviu (the name of a Spanish cave in which "Lloviu cuevaviruses" were first discovered) and the taxonomic suffix virus (which denotes a virus species).[1]

Note

"Lloviu cuevavirus" is pronounced j’ɔːvjuː ˌkwɛvə’vaɪrəs (IPA) or yaw-vyoo kwe-vuh-vahy-ruhs in English phonetic notation.[1] According to the rules for taxon naming established by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), the name "Lloviu cuevavirus" is always to be capitalized, not italicized but instead placed in quotation marks because of its unaccepted status, never abbreviated, and to be preceded by the word "species". The names of its members ("Lloviu cuevaviruses") are to be capitalized, are not italicized, and used without articles.[1] A formal proposal to accept this species into virus taxonomy has not yet been submitted.

Species inclusion criteria

A virus that fulfills the criteria for being a member of the genus "Cuevavirus" is a member of the species "Lloviu cuevavirus" if it has the properties of "cuevaviruses" (because there is currently only only "cuevavirus" species) and if its genome differs from that of Lloviu virus (variant Bat86) by <30% at the nucleotide level.[1]
