| | Cross-reacts in CF test with immune mouse ascitic fluid for Akabane [2] . | | Significant cross-CF reactions between Sabo, Sango, Shamonda, Shuni, and Sathuperi, but not with Ingwavuma. Shamonda and Sathuperi closely related by immunodiffusion test [4] . | | Following antigenic studies involving 24 Simbu group viruses, Shamonda virus was classified as a distinct virus type and placed in the Simbu complex of the Simbu serogroup [5] . | | |
