Ichnovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Polydnaviridae. Parasitoid wasps serve as hosts, and these wasps are themselves parasitoids of Lepidoptera. There are 21 species in this genus.[1][2]
The genus Ichnovirus contained 21 species in ICTV version 1999a-2020:[3] The genus Ichnoviriform contains 22 species starting ICTV version 2021[2] The species Ichnoviriform rostralis, previously known as Tranosema rostrale bracovirus was moved to ichnoviriform from bracoviriform (bracovirus) in 2021.
