A novel virus potentially evolved from the N4-like viruses represents a unique viral family: <i>Poorviridae</i>
vB_PunP_Y3 is a unique strain containing three of the seven hallmark proteins of N4-like viruses, but is grouped into a novel family-level viral cluster with three uncultured viruses from metagenomics, named <i>Poorviridae</i>. This study enhanced the understanding about the genetic diversity, evolution, and distribution of <i>Pseudoalteromonas</i> viruses and provided insights into the novel evolution mechanism of marine viruses.
