Scanning electron, fluorescent and light microscopy of rumen ciliate protozoaof sheep revealed that spherical bacteria were attached to the surface of ciliates of variousspecies. These bacteria were cocci forming units, pairs or chains of varying length. Mostof them were identified as Streptococcus bovis and Ruminococcus albus by means of lm-munofluorescent miaoscopy. No rods were observed. Of the ciliates, Eudiplodiniummaggii had the largest number of bacteria attached to the settled dimensions of thesurface, and Epidinium ecaudatum the smallest number. In Hudiplodinium maggii andDiplopZastron affine, the attachement of bacteria was observed especially around the cyto-stome. It was considered that about 250 bacteria on the average might be attached to thesurface of one ciliate. The cause and the significance of the attachment of bacteria werediscussed.
