A single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) virus is presented from a metagenomic data set derived from Alphaproteobacteria -infected hepatopancreatic tissues of the crab Eurypanopeus depressus The circular virus genome (4,768 bp) encodes 14 hypothetical proteins, some similar to other bacteriophages ( Microviridae ). Based on its relatedness to other Microviridae , this virus represents a member of a novel genus.
