R Woods 17/01/2006 Kunjin virus was first isolated from Cx. annulirostris mosquitoes collected in north Queensland in Australia in 1960 and given the name of a nearby Aboriginal clan living on the Mitchell River. It is closely related to West Nile virus (See West Nile virus/ WNV below and http://www.health.gov.au/internet/wcms/publishing.nsf/Content/health-arbovirus-pdf-fskunjin.htm.)
