In virology, the second highest taxonomy rank established by the ICTV is subrealm, which is the rank below realm. Subrealms of viruses use the suffix -vira, viroid subrealms use the suffix -viroida, and satellites use the suffix -satellitida. The rank below subrealm is kingdom. As of 2019, no taxa are described at the rank of subrealm. [1] [6]

They established Virology in 1955, and the journal first appeared in May of that year. [2] [8] [9] It was the first English-only journal to focus on virology, [2] and is the oldest United States-based journal in the specialism. [10] Hirst was the founding editor-in-chief, with Black and Luria being co-editors. [2]
