Viruses belonging to the species Rhinovirus C (formerly
named Human rhinovirus C) are distinct from RV-A and RV-B. These viruses have been referred to as HRV-A2 (Arden et al., 2006;
McErlean et al., 2007) due to its closer relationship with
RV-A in some analyses, while others have called them HRV-C (Lamson
et al., 2006; Lau et al., 2007; Lee et al.,
2007; McErlean et al., 2008) or HRV-X (Kistler et al.,
2007).
Proposals for the designation of RV-C types have been published (Simmonds
et al., 2010;
McIntyre et al., 2013).
There are now
57 RV-C types (C1-C57) designated.
