Betairidovirinae is a subfamily of viruses in the family Iridoviridae. It is one of two subfamilies within this family, the other being Alphairdovirinae. All species within the Betairidovirinae are hosted by invertebrates, whereas all species within the Alphairdovirinae are hosted by vertebrates (namely; fishes, amphibians, and reptiles). As such, viruses in this subfamily may be called invertebrate iridescent viruses (IIVs) or invertebrate iridoviruses.
