Abstract
The ultrastructure of the lodamoeba butschlii cyst from human feces wa s studied. The glycogen mass appears as a compact dense body in the cy toplasm without any surrounding membrane. The cytoplasm has no mitocho ndrion. The nucleus shows a distinct nucleolus filled with electron-de nse particles. On one side of the nucleolus are electron-dense cytopla smic masses measuring 200-400 nm. The nuclear membrane is two-layered and shows pores.
