ABSTRACT
The rumen ciliate Epidinium ecaudatum was grown in vitro in one species culture. The culture
medium consisting of salt solution, powdered hay and wheat gluten provided appropriate conditions
for maintenance of the protozoa. The population density was influenced by the proportion of
cellulose, starch and urea in the culture medium as well as by the solubility of protein. The ciliates did
not require rumen fluid for the growth.
