Abstract
A new form of Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization is given for the motion of the guiding center in a strong magnetic field. This is obtained from t he effective action for the degree of the guiding center which is dedu ced from the coherent state path integral for the two types of motion under mutual interaction: cyclotron motion and the motion of the guidi ng center.
