We report the draft genome sequences of ciliovirus and brinovirus, two members of a likely new family of RNA viruses assembled from San Francisco wastewater. Based on sequence alignments and a nonuniversal genetic code, we believe these to be the first described RNA viruses of ciliates; however, more work is necessary to confirm their host.
