Abstract
Kindia tick virus (KITV) is a novel multicomponent virus first detected by direct sequencing of Rhipicephalus geigyi ticks in Guinea in 2017. Here, we present a complete coding genome sequence for all four segments of KITV/2017/1. This virus appears to be evolutionarily related to unclassified flaviviruses, such as Alongshan virus.
