埃博拉病毒种的重新命名
国际病毒分类委员会（International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, ICTV）已将埃博拉病毒属改名为正埃博拉病毒。
近年来，埃博拉病毒属（包括 6 个种）与埃博拉病毒（扎伊尔型埃博拉病毒种的病毒名）相混淆，造成了命名上的混乱，从而引发了这一变化。
现正埃博拉病毒属包含以下重命名种：
扎伊尔型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus zairense；旧称扎伊尔型埃博拉病毒）
苏丹型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus sudanense；旧称苏丹型埃博拉病毒）
塔伊森林型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus taiense；旧称塔伊森林型埃博拉病毒）
本迪布焦型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus bundibugyoense；旧称本迪布焦型埃博拉病毒）
雷斯顿型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus restonense；旧称雷斯顿型埃博拉病毒）
邦巴利型正埃博拉病毒（orthoebolavirus bombaliense；旧称邦巴利型埃博拉病毒）
病毒名称保持不变且符合正确的分类。
