Lymphocystivirus cause mass mortality events like megalocytiviruses and ranaviruses, fish with lymphocystis exhibit grossly visible papilloma-like skin lesions which substantially reduce their commercial value. No vaccines are currently available for lymphocystis viruses. Group: dsDNA The genus "Lymphocystivirus" has only one species: "Lymphocystis disease virus 1" (LCDV-1), but Lymphocystis disease virus 2 (LCD-2) is another virus that has been proposed as a second member. LCDV-1 infects European flounder "Platichthys flesus" and European plaice ("Pleuronectes platessa"). LCDV-2 infects the common dab ("Limanda limanda"). A third species Lymphocystis disease virus C has also been proposed based on the relative lack of sequence similarity of
Eclecta aurorella by a slender white line. There is an irregularly triangular dark reddish-fuscous blotch, more ochreous-fuscous beneath, on the hindmargin, its apex extending to the disc at three-fifths from the base, its base extending from above the anal angle to beneath the apex, the lower side suffused, upper side connected in the disc with a dark reddish-fuscous acute diamond-shaped mark beneath the costa, beyond the connection margined with white. Within this triangle is a slender white twice sharply-toothed line proceeding from the middle of the upper side to the lower angle, and two small indistinct whitish spots on the hindmargin. The
