abstract = "Investigation of the ciliate communities from the digestive tract of different wild vertebrates is important in context of host-specificity of different ciliate species and the detection of any cases of non-specific infection. Here we present a description and analysis of the fauna of ciliates (Litostomatea, Trichostomatia) inhabiting the intestine of the wild plains zebra (Equus quagga Boddaert, 1785) in South Africa. Nineteen species belonging to 12 genera of five families were found. Five species were specific to Equus quagga; one was also found in Equus zebra; 29 are common to different equids; and one had been previously described from rhinoceros. For the first time, we used immunofluorescent staining to investigate microtubule cytoskeletons in trichostomatids. We found that this staining method is useful for the identification of trichostomatids.",
