Upon sequence analysis, we observed a remarkable genetic diversity among the various bat AstV strains detected in Italy. These findings do not confirm the bat species specificity of AstV, proposed by other authors (Fischer et al., 2016 Astrovirus infection is associated with gastro-enteritis in most animal species, and humans AstVs are regarded as a common cause of viral diarrhoea in children (Mendez, Aguirre-Crespo, Zavala, & Arias, 2007; Xiao et al., 2017) . The potential zoonotic risks associated with bats have attracted the attention of researchers, mostly after the discovery of SARS-like and MERS-like CoVs (two coronaviruses highly pathogenic for humans) in European bat species, although the zoonotic risks posed by bat viruses, likely very limited, should be assessed more properly (Kohl & Kurth, 2014) , in large structured studies.	./cache/cord-318080-cmx3q2sc.txt	./txt/cord-318080-cmx3q2sc.txt
