Globuloviridae
Globuloviridae is a family of hyperthermophilic archaeal viruses. Crenarchaea of the genera Pyrobaculum and Thermoproteus serve as natural hosts. There are currently only two species in this family, Pyrobaculum spherical virus and Thermoproteus tenax spherical virus 1, included into a single genus, Globulovirus. Two tentative members of the family, Pyrobaculum spherical virus 2 and Thermoproteus spherical piliferous virus 1 have been isolated but not officially classified.
