Densovirinae[1] is a subfamily of single-stranded DNA viruses in the family Parvoviridae.[2][3] The subfamily has 11 recognized genera and 21 species.[4] Densoviruses are known to infect members of insect orders Blattodea, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, and Orthoptera, while some viruses infect and multiply in crustaceans such as shrimp or crayfish, or sea stars from phylum Echinodermata.[3]
