Snippet: The discovery curve for virus families is shown in figure 1b . Here, a family is included on the date of the first published report of human infection by a virus species from that family. There is too little data (n ¼ 23) for detailed statistical analysis, but the figure does suggest a possible decrease in the rate of discovery, implying that the pool of undiscovered families may be relatively modest (see [5] ).

Document: The discovery curve for virus families is shown in figure 1b . Here, a family is included on the date of the first published report of human infection by a virus species from that family. There is too little data (n ¼ 23) for detailed statistical analysis, but the figure does suggest a possible decrease in the rate of discovery, implying that the pool of undiscovered families may be relatively modest (see [5] ). Strikingly, no new families have been added to the list since 1988, the longest such interval on record. However, several viruses (specifically Torque Teno (TT) virus, TT mini virus and TT midi virus) newly reported since 1988 remain unassigned to a family.
