  abstract = {{B}ats are reservoirs for many emerging zoonotic viruses. {I}n this study, we screened 197 animals from 15 different bat species of the {S}outhwest {I}ndian {O}cean for paramyxovirus infection and identified paramyxoviruses in five insectivorous bat-species from the {U}nion of the {C}omoros (3/66), {M}auritius (1/55) and {M}adagascar (4/76). {V}iral isolation was possible via cell culture and phylogenetic analysis revealed these viruses clustered in a {M}orbillivirus-related lineage, with relatively high nucleotide sequence similarity to other recently discovered insectivorous-bat paramyxoviruses but distinct from those known to circulate in frugivorous bats.},
