[The discovery, in Drosophila, of viruses belonging to three new groups].

Viruses belonging to three new groups have been discovered by the technique used to detect the Picornaviruses. Virus F was found in two French laboratory stocks of D. melanogaster. Virus G and virus RS came from wild flies: a sample of D. melanogaster from Guiana (virus G) and a mixture of different Drosophila species from Singapore (virus G and virus RS).
