  Two enteroviruses isolated from brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) in New Zealand (Zheng, 2007) belong to the species Enterovirus F. They are distinct from five other proposed genetically-defined types within the group and are currently referred to as BEV-B4. It is proposed to call this virus type enterovirus F4 (EV-F4).
