A review of the ciliate (Ciliophora) species associated to rotifers as epibionts and endoparasites is presented, based on published records. Thirty rotifer species from 12 genera are known as hosts of ciliates. Among ciliates, one species of class Suctorea and 14 species of class Oligohymenophorea (12 from subclass Peritrichia, one from Hymenostomatia, and one from Astomatia) have been noted as associated to rotifers. The possible factors responsible for host prevalence of ciliates are discussed.
本文回顾了已发表的文献，总结了以轮虫为外共生体和内寄生生物的纤毛虫（纤毛门）物种。已知有 30 种轮虫，来自 12 个属，是纤毛虫的宿主。在纤毛虫中，有 1 种吸管亚纲和 14 种寡膜纤毛虫纲（其中 12 种属于缘毛亚纲，1 种属于寡膜目，1 种属于无膜亚纲）被记录为与轮虫有关。还讨论了可能导致纤毛虫宿主流行的因素。
