Abstract

Insectivorous animal is one of the oldest and most primitive mammals, which is widely distributed throughout the world. Hantavirus is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens, causing hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). In recent years, 23 types of hantaviruses have been found in insectivorous animals. The typing, phylogenetic, co-evolution or cross-species transmission of hantaviruses associated with insectivorous animals were reviewed in this paper.
