“…Examples of such macro-evolutionary processes, driven by host-switching, have been reported for Puumala virus and a Hantavirus detected in bats from northern Europe and for which no evidence of co-divergence was observed 39 . This scenario has also been cited for other hantaviruses and is probably a general rule for this viral family 14 40 ; A viral allopatric process, in which a virus speciates within a host species living in different geographical areas, and giving rise to independent evolution 12 13 . This may have occurred for Triaenops menamena , Mops leucostigma , and Miniopterus griveaudi ; these three taxa have relatively broad distributions on Madagascar 26 .…”

An eco-epidemiological investigation was carried out on Madagascar bat communities to better understand the evolutionary mechanisms and environmental factors that affect virus transmission among bat species in closely related members of the genus Morbillivirus, currently referred to as Unclassified Morbilli-related paramyxoviruses (UMRVs). A total of 947 bats were investigated originating from 52 capture sites (22 caves, 18 buildings, and 12 outdoor sites) distributed over different bioclimatic zones of the island. Using RT-PCR targeting the L-polymerase gene of the Paramyxoviridae family, we found that 10.5% of sampled bats were infected, representing six out of seven families and 15 out of 31 species analyzed. Univariate analysis indicates that both abiotic and biotic factors may promote viral infection. Using generalized linear modeling of UMRV infection overlaid on biotic and abiotic variables, we demonstrate that sympatric occurrence of bats is a major factor for virus transmission. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that all paramyxoviruses infecting Malagasy bats are UMRVs and showed little host specificity. Analyses using the maximum parsimony reconciliation tool CoRe-PA, indicate that hostswitching, rather than co-speciation, is the dominant macro-evolutionary mechanism of UMRVs among Malagasy bats.The transgression of the species barrier by pathogens moving from their natural host reservoir to infect a new host species (also referred to as host-switching, host-jumping or host-shifting), may induce an abortive infection in the few infected individuals of the new host, or trigger a short lived outbreak, or an epidemic 1,2 . Co-speciation and host-switching are the two main evolutionary mechanisms generating genetic diversity among micro-organisms. Both are long-term dynamic processes 3 , in contrast to co-evolution sensu stricto, which continuously acts on a short-time scale 4 . Co-speciation, the simultaneous speciation of the host and their parasites 3,5-7 , was considered

“…In addition, other investigators have reported soricid-borne orthohantaviruses, including Seewis virus in the Eurasian common shrew in Austria (N. Nowotny, unpublished data), Finland (Ling et al, 2014), Germany (Schlegel et al, 2012b;Obiegala et al, 2017), Slovakia (Schlegel et al, 2012b) and Slovenia (Korva et al, 2013;Resman et al, 2013); Tanganya virus in the Therese's shrew (Crocidura theresae) in Guinea (Klempa et al, 2007); Qian Hu Shan virus in the greater striped-back shrew (Sorex cylindricauda) (Zuo et al, 2014) and Yákèshí virus in the taiga shrew (Sorex isodon) (Guo et al, 2013) in China; and Asikkala virus in the Eurasian pygmy shrew in the Czech Republic and Germany (Radosa et al, 2013). Moreover, Kenkeme virus was found to co-circulate with Hantaan and Khabarovsk viruses in Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island, in China (Wang et al, 2014).…”

The recent discovery that multiple species of shrews and moles (order Eulipotyphla, families Soricidae and Talpidae) from Europe, Asia, Africa and/or North America harbour genetically distinct viruses belonging to the family Hantaviridae (order Bunyavirales) has prompted a further exploration of their host diversification. In analysing thousands of frozen, RNAlater®-preserved and ethanol-fixed tissues from bats (order Chiroptera) by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), ten hantaviruses have been detected to date in bat species belonging to the suborder Yinpterochiroptera (families Hipposideridae, Pteropodidae and Rhinolophidae) and the suborder Yangochiroptera (families Emballonuriade, Nycteridae and Vespertilionidae). Of these, six hantaviruses are from Asia (Xuân Sơn virus and Đakrông virus in Vietnam; Láibīn virus in China and Myanmar; Huángpí virus and Lóngquán virus in China; and Quezon virus in the Philippines); three are from Africa (Mouyassué virus in Côte d'Ivoire and Ethiopia; Magboi virus in Sierra Leone; and Makokou virus in Gabon); and one from Europe (Brno virus in the Czech Republic). Molecular identification of many more bat-borne hantaviruses is expected. However, thus far, none of these newfound viruses has been isolated in cell culture and it is unclear if they cause infection or disease in humans. Future research must focus on myriad unanswered questions about the genetic diversity and geographic distribution, as well as the pathogenic potential, of bat-borne viruses of the family Hantaviridae.

Global Diversity and Distribution of Hantaviruses and Their Hosts

Rodents represent 42% of the world's mammalian biodiversity encompassing 2,277 species populating every continent (except Antarctica) and are reservoir hosts for a wide diversity of disease agents. Thus, knowing the identity, diversity, host-pathogen relationships, and geographic distribution of rodent-borne zoonotic pathogens, is essential for predicting and mitigating zoonotic disease outbreaks. Hantaviruses are hosted by numerous rodent reservoirs. However, the diversity of rodents harboring hantaviruses is likely unknown because research is biased toward specific reservoir hosts and viruses. An up-to-date, systematic review covering all known rodent hosts is lacking. Herein, we document gaps in our knowledge of the diversity and distribution of rodent species that host hantaviruses. Of the currently recognized 681 cricetid, 730 murid, 61 nesomyid, and 278 sciurid species, we determined that 11.3, 2.1, 1.6, and 1.1%, respectively, have known associations with hantaviruses. The diversity of hantaviruses hosted by rodents and their distribution among host species supports a reassessment of the paradigm that each virus is associated with a single-host species. We examine these host-virus associations on a global taxonomic and geographical scale with emphasis on the rodent host diversity and distribution. Previous reviews have been centered on the viruses and not the mammalian hosts. Thus, we provide a perspective not previously addressed.
