  The species Kobuvirus aichi (formerly named Aichivirus A and before that Aichi virus) contains 10 genotypes:

Aichivirus A1 also known as Aichi virus 1 (found in humans).
Aichivirus A2 also known as canine kobuvirus 1.
Aichivirus A3 also known as murine kobuvirus 1.
Aichivirus A4 also known as feline kobuvirus 1.
Aichivirus A5 also known as European roller kobuvirus 1.
Aichivirus A6 also known as rat kobuvirus.
Aichivirus A7 found in bats.
Aichivirus A8 also known as murine kobuvirus (distinct from Aichivirus A3).
Aichivirus A9 also known as Norway rat kobuvirus.
Aichivirus A10 found in bats.

The nearly complete genome sequence (6939 nt) of a possible new Aichivirus A type has recently been determined from a sewage samples from Kathmandu, Nepal (Ng et al., 2012; KoV-SewKTM; JQ898342).
