  Three picornaviruses have been discovered in bats in Hong Kong SAR (Lau et al., 2011). They appear to be most closely related to the sapeloviruses.

Bat picornavirus 3 (BPV-3)

BPV-3 was detected in the Great round-leaf bat (Hipposideros armiger) and the Chinese horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus sinicus).
