Palm Creek virus (PCV) is an insect virus belonging to the genus Flavivivirus, of the family Flaviviridae. It was discovered in 2013 from mosquito Coquillettidia xanthogaster collected in Australia.^[1] It was experimentally shown that this is a good virus in the sense that when cultured mosquito cells are preinfected with PCV, harmful viruses such as West Nile and Murray Valley encephalitis viruses can not develop in the infected cells.^[2]
