The last recorded Macintosh virus was the Autostart 9805 Worm which was discovered in Hong Kong in May 1998. Before that was in March 1994 when INIT 29 and INIT 9403 were created. Most virii were created and discovered in the late 80's and early 90's. There is a list and definitions of know macintosh viruses
here. If you look around there are actually more viruses than that, but most are variations nVIR B because soon after nVIR B was released instructions on how to make it were leaked onto the internet.
