Virus Accession number 12000000. Viruses with typical calicivirus morphology have been identified in other animal species including humans, other primates, cattle, mink, swine, walruses, dolphins, dogs, rabbits, chickens, reptiles, amphibians and insects, but none of these have been fully characterised. Those from humans and some other species cause gastroenteritis, and are difficult to propagate in cell culture. Virus infects vertebrates and invertebrates.
