| A picorna-like virus of the
Boa constrictor is
mentioned by Essbauer and Ahne (2001). Heldstab and Bestetti (1984) mention a picorna-like of the Aesculapian snake (Elaphe longissima). The genome sequence of Virus "X", a tortoise picornavirus, has recently been reported (Heuser et al., 2010). References Essbauer, S. and Ahne, W. (2001). Viruses of Lower Vertebrates.
