Introduction Viral diseases of pinnipeds cause substantial mortality and morbidity can influence population demography. metagenomic studies therefore play an important role in pinniped health assessments disease surveillance relevant to both individual species a “One Health” context. Methods This study used approach with high throughput sequencing make the first assessment viral diversity Caspian seals ( Pusa caspica ), only marine mammal endemic Sea. Results Sequencing libraries from 35 sampled 2009–2020 were analysed, finding sequences families Circoviridae, Parvoviridae, Herpesviridae, Papillomaviridae, Picornaviridae, Caliciviridae, Cruciviridae, Anelloviridae, Smacoviridae, Orthomyxoviridae, additional detection Adenoviridae via PCR. The similarity contigs seal recovered other ranged 63.74% (San Miguel sea lion calicivirus) 78.79% (Seal anellovirus 4). Discussion Some findings represent novel species, but overall, repertoire is similar available viromes pinnipeds. Among partial for influenza B, representing second such molecular identification mammals. work provides foundation further communities seals, more generally, contributes data risk
