TI  - First record of a mosquito iridescent virus in Culex pipiens L. (Diptera: 
      Culicidae).

AB  - The mosquito iridescent viruses (MIVs) are large icosahedral DNA viruses that 
      replicate and assemble in the cytoplasm of the host. Paracrystalline arrangements 
      of virions that accumulate in the cytoplasm produce an iridescent color that is 
      symptomatic of acute infections. In August 2010, we found larvae of Culex pipiens 
      with these symptoms in suburban ditches around the city of La Plata, Argentina. 
      Electron microscope studies, DNA sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis of the 
      major capsid protein confirmed this as the first record of an MIV in C. Pipiens.
