Three identical strains of a new virus Kama (Flaviviridae, Flavivirus, Tyuleny antigenic group) were isolated from Ixodes lividus Roch, obligate parasites of Riparia riparia L. The ticks were collected in June, 1990 in Tatarstan on the islands in the basin of the Kama river. The strains were examined under electron microscope and by serological tests (neutralization, complement fixation, hemagglutination inhibition, and indirect immunofluorescence). The virus is antigenically related but not identical to Tyuleny virus. Hence, the Tyuleny antigenic group at present includes viruses Tyuleny, Meaban, Gadgest Gally, Saumares Reef, and Kama. All these viruses are associated with an ecosystem including ixodide ticks, obligate parasites of colonial birds.
从灰硬蜱（Ixodes lividus Roch）中分离出三株相同的新型病毒卡马（Kama，黄病毒科，黄病毒属，秋列尼抗原组），灰硬蜱是河燕（Riparia riparia L.）的专性寄生虫。这些蜱于1990年6月在鞑靼斯坦的卡马河流域岛屿上采集。通过电子显微镜和血清学检测（中和试验、补体结合试验、血凝抑制试验和间接免疫荧光试验）对这些毒株进行了检测。该病毒与秋列尼病毒抗原相关但不相同。因此，秋列尼抗原组目前包括秋列尼病毒、梅班病毒、加德盖斯特·加利病毒、索马雷斯礁病毒和卡马病毒。所有这些病毒都与一个生态系统相关，该生态系统包括硬蜱科蜱虫，它们是群居鸟类的专性寄生虫。
