This page is for a virus species, which is a member of the family it is redirected to. However, it is not the only species in that family, and so is not synonymous with it. It is common practice that whenever a genus contains only one species, or a family contains only one genus, that one page be redirected to the other, but that is not the case here. Additionally, there are several species in the same family that do not have pages and are not redirects to the family. Bervin61 (talk) 21:59, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
