First sentence: Although adenoviruses have been isolated from every class of vertebrates including fishes, amphibians and reptiles (RUSSELL and BENKÖ 1999), according to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses-approved official taxonomy (BENKÖ et al. 2000) the family Adenoviridae contains only two genera (Mastadenovirus and Aviadenovirus).
