Isolation and characterization of Kabuto Mountain virus, a new tick-borne phlebovirus from Haemaphysalis flava ticks in Japan

•A new phlebovirus was isolated from Haemaphysalis flava ticks in Japan.•The virus, designated Kabuto Mountain virus (KAMV), was genetically characterized.•KAMV is phylogenetically related to the Uukuniemi and Kaisodi group viruses. In Japan, indigenous tick-borne phleboviruses (TBPVs) and their ass...
