Parvovirus B19 was the first pathogenic human parvovirus to be discovered and is best known for causing a childhood exanthemcalled "fifth disease" (erythema infectiosum), although it is also associated with other diseases including arthritis.

Canine parvovirus causes a virulent and contagious disease in dogs. In cats, a parvovirus causes feline distemper
