The article characterizes a meadow-type focus tularemia, discovered in Zalarinski'i District of Irkutsk Province in 1988. This focus and another similar focus discovered in 1985 at the Krasnoyarsk Territory belong to the meadow type, which makes it possible to regard their presence in Eastern Siberia as an established fact. The main reservoirs and sources of infection in these foci are two species of voles (Microtus gregalis and M. subarvalis).

Insectivores are the new emerging reservoir of hantaviruses. Here, we describe Lena virus (LENV), a novel hantavirus harbored by the Laxmann`s shrew (Sorex caecutiens), which is also the host of Artybash virus (ARTV). Genetic analysis of the complete genomic sequence shows that LENV is in distant relation to ARTV and other Sorex-borne hantaviruses, suggesting that LENV has emerged from cross-species transmission.

Materials And Methods: Epizootological monitoring and epidemiological analysis were conducted in the areas of natural tularemia foci of tundra (Wrangel Island), meadow-field (Central Federal District of the Russian Federation), flood-swamp (Arkhangelsk Region, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous District), and steppe (Mongolii) types. Small mammals (organs, blood), tularemia patients' sera, and environniental objects were examined.
