Hosts

Ghost sharks and the halfbeak Hyporhamphus sajori serve as natural hosts for species in the suborder. Nanidovirineae where found infecting these fishes only in China. Nanidovirineae is distinguished from its sibling suborders mainly by this reliance on fish hosts, although Tobaniviridae also have some fish as natural hosts.[1]
