Genera
Betasatellite – 119 species Deltasatellite – 12 species

Tolecusatellitidae is a incertae sedis ssDNA/ssDNA(+) family of biological satellites. The family contains two genera and 131 species.[1] This family of viruses depend on the presence of another virus (helper viruses) to replicate their genomes, as such they have minimal genomes with very low genomic redundancy. [2]

The name Tolecusatellitidae is a combination of Tolecu, from the first DNA satellite shown to be associated with _To_mato _le_af _cu_rl virus and satellite, the fact that it is a satellite.[3]

The species are ssDNA unless specified ssDNA(+). There are 62 ssDNA(+) and 69 ssDNA satellites.
