    Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are classified into major viral families like Togaviridae, Bunyaviridae, Reoviridae, and Rhabdoviridae. Many arboviruses remain unclassified, highlighting ongoing research needs in viral taxonomy.

    Area of Science:

    • Virology
    • Arbovirology
    • Taxonomy

    Context:

    • Arboviruses encompass diverse viral taxons.
    • Classification has evolved from serological groups to genera and families.
    • Key families include Togaviridae, Bunyaviridae, Reoviridae, and Rhabdoviridae.

    Purpose:

    • To outline the taxonomic classification of arboviruses.
    • To highlight the major viral families and genera that encompass arboviruses.
    • To identify the extent of unclassified arboviruses.

    Summary:

    • Arboviruses are categorized into distinct viral families, including Togaviridae (Alphavirus), Bunyaviridae, Reoviridae (Orbivirus), and Rhabdoviridae.
    • The Bunyaviridae family alone comprises nearly 200 arboviruses across 24 serogroups.

  • Other families like Iridoviridae, Poxviridae, Picornaviridae, and Coronaviridae host individual arboviruses, with over 50 remaining unclassified.
  • Impact:

    • Provides a structured overview of arbovirus classification for researchers.
    • Clarifies the taxonomic placement of significant arbovirus groups.
    • Underscores the need for further research into unclassified arboviruses and their relationships.
