title: Morphological comparison of Machupo with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus: basis for a new taxonomic group.
abstract: Striking morphologic similarities between Machupo, Tacaribe, and lymphocytic choriomeningitis viruses were found by thin-section electron microscopy. It is proposed that these viruses be brought together into a single taxonomic group.
