Abstract :
Rumen fluid samples of adult Indian cattle (Bos indicus) were collected and observed to study the morphology of rumen ciliate protozoa belonging to genus Entodinium. The present paper deals with the morphology of species Entodinium simulans f.lobospinosum (Lubinsky, 1957) from the rumen of Indian cattle. The body measurement, frequency distribution and variation in the character are recorded Critical comments are made on its specific identity. The observations are based on a study of 50 specimens taken at random from different samples. This species is observed as a first host record from the rumen of cattle in India (Bos indicus)
