Abstract
Intraperitoneal injection of large doses of the two arthropod iridoviruses,Armadillidium iridescent virus (AvIV) andChilo iridescent virus, was lethal to the frog,Rana limnocharis. The LD50 of purified AvIV for the frog was 2.7 µg. While UV-inactivated AvIV produced a lethal toxicity to the frog, heat-inactivated AvIV did not show any toxicity. Lethal toxicity of AvIV was neutralized by the homologous rabbit antiserum but not by the heterologous antisera.
