摘要
Acanthamoeba castellanii medusavirus J1 is a giant virus that was isolated from a hot spring in Japan in 2019. Recently, a close relative of this virus, named medusavirus stheno T3, was isolated in Japan. Here, we describe their morphological, genomic, and gene content similarities and also propose to create a new family, "Mamonoviridae ", a new genus, "Medusavirus ", and two species, "Medusavirus medusae " and "Medusavirus sthenus ", to classify these two viruses within the phylum Nucleocytoviricota.
