Abstract
This article presents a proposal for the establishment of a new adenov irus genes to acommodate certain bovine, ovine, and avian adenoviruses with special characteristics which differentiate them from members of the existing genera, Mastadenovirus and Aviadenovirus. This proposal has been developed from earlier versions with advice from the Adenovir us Study Group of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses ( ICTV).
