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
Rusty desert monitor cm. The colouration of this monitor lizard on the upper side is light to dark reddish-brown with numerous, irregularly distributed, black or deep-brown spots. Sometimes, smaller primrose or cream-colored spots are present. Its tail shows alternating cream-colored and deep-brown longitudinal stripes, which are often broken up into scattered spots at the tail base. A conspicuous black stripe occurs from the snout to the eye. This species spends its life on the ground and seldom climbs trees. No successful breeding in captivity has yet been reported. Stomach contents indicate the diet by volume of the rusty desert monitor consists mainly of
