ABSTRACT

Two circular, complete genomes of anelloviruses were identified from a crowned lemur anal swab and an aye-aye skin swab from individuals at the Duke Lemur Center (Durham, NC, USA). The anelloviruses represent two species in the Anelloviridae family and expand a developing lemur-associated anellovirus lineage.
