  • Investigations in wild bats and non-human primates in Brazil and Costa Rica inform about diverse Morbillivirus ecology in neotropical bats and host jumps, and about zoonotic potential of morbilliviruses in Latin America.

  • Here, Griffiths et al. show infection of 80–100% of sampled vampire bats in Peru with a newly discovered betaherpesvirus (DrBHV) that exhibits specificity within neotropical bats and evidence for superinfection. These data suggest that DrBHV could be a candidate for virally vectored vaccines that spread autonomously through a bat population.

  • The common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) is one of only three obligate blood-feeding mammals. By sequencing both its genome and gut metagenome, the authors provide a holistic view of the evolutionary adaptations that underlie this unusual diet.

  • Much of the molecular virology of rabies virus has been well characterized, and we are gaining a better understanding of how infection dynamics and immune status relate to transmission. In this Review, Schnell and colleagues explore rabies virus transmission, enzootic maintenance and epizootic spread, as well as molecular evolutionary dynamics, host adaptation and the origins of rabies virus.
