ResumoSphaerita hoari sp. n.—a chytrid parasitizing Eremoplastron bovis—is described with special attention given to its vegetative structures. Sphaerita-like parasites of nine species of other ciliates of the rumen of domestic ruminants are reported. It is shown that at least some of these parasites are chytrid fungi.
