Legends for Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 were incorrectly published in the original version, in which these had been interchanged. This is corrected now (Figs. 1, 2).

Phylogenetic analysis of members of the class Naldaviricetes. Concatenated alignments of five PIF amino acid sequences (pif-0/p74, pif-1, pif-2, pif-3, and pif-5/odv-e56), DNA polymerase (dnapol), and sulfhydryl oxidase (p33) were used to infer relationships by maximum likelihood as implemented in RAxML version 8.2.9 with substitution models and parameters selected for each alignment. Family-level classification is indicated for different clades in the midpoint-rooted tree. Abbreviations of virus names are as follows: AcMNPV, Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus; LdMNPV, Lymantria dispar MNPV; CpGV, Cydia pomonella granulovirus; CuniNPV, Culex nigripalpus nucleopolyhedrovirus; NeleNPV, Neodiprion lecontei NPV; OrNV, Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus; GbNV, Gryllus bimaculatus NV; HzNV-2, Heliothis zea NV-2; PmNV, Penaeus monodon NV; ToNV, Tipula oleracea NV; GpSGHV, Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus; MdSGHV, Musca domestica SGHV; AmFV, Apis mellifera filamentous virus; LbFV, Leptopilina boulardi FV; WSSV, white spot syndrome virus; CoBV, Chionoecetes opilio bacilliform virus. Endogenized nimaviruses from Marsupenaeus japonicus, Peneaus monodon, and Metapeneaus ensis were also included. This figure was reproduced and slightly modified from Kawato et al., 2019, J Virol 93:e01144-18, https://doi.org/10.1128/JVI.01144-18, with permission from the authors and the American Society for Microbiology.

Taxonomic hierarchy of families of nuclear arthropod large DNA viruses. A new class, Naldaviricetes, was established for classification of the viruses in the four currently established families Baculoviridae, Nudiviridae, Hytrosaviridae, and Nimaviridae. A new order, Lefavirales, was introduced to include three of these families. The two viruses indicated at the bottom of the figure (Apis mellifera filamentous virus [3, 10] and Leptopilina boulardi filamentous virus [15]) are currently unclassified, but based on their genome content, they bear the hallmarks of members of the taxa Naldaviricetes and Lefavirales, respectively.

Errors in Table 3 were corrected. Revised version updated here.
