The genus Cardiovirus consists two species, Encephalomyocarditis virus and Theilovirus. EMCV is represented by a single serotype of the same name while the theiloviruses are comprised of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV), Vilyuisk human encephalomyelitis virus (VHEV), Thera virus (TRV;  isolated from rats), Saffold virus (SAFV; isolated from humans) 1-8. The cardioviruses are most closely related to members of the genera Senecavirus, Aphthovirus and Erbovirus and to the recently recognised cosaviruses.

Below: Phylogenetic analysis of the P1 capsid-coding region of the cardioviruses.
