Artoviridae

Artoviridae is a family of negative-strand RNA viruses in the order Mononegavirales.[1][2] Barnacles, copepods, odonates, parasitoid wasps, pile worms, and woodlice serve as natural hosts.[2] The group name derives from arthropod the phylum of its hosts.[3] Members of the family were initially discovered by high throughput sequencing.[4][5]
