The composition of rumen ciliate protozoa was surveyed in 15 Tokara native goats, Capra hircus domesticus, inhibiting Kagoshima, Japan. As a result, of 11 species with 3 forms under 5 genera detected, Entodinium simplex, E. nanellum and E. rectangulatum were found in all the animals examined. The large ophryoscolecid ciliates detected were Polyplastron multivesiculatum and Metadinium affine alone, which have been regarded as the typical members of Type A composition proposed by Eadie. Since Tokara native goats have been bred isolated in a small islet for a long time, native goats that had been kept in south Japan might possess Type A fauna. Average ciliate density was 43.9 x 10(4) per 1 ml of rumen fluid. The number of species per host was 8.3 on average. Diversity index was 1.412 on average.
对生活在日本鹿儿岛的15只德之岛本地山羊（Capra hircus domesticus）瘤胃纤毛虫的组成进行了调查。结果，在所检测到的5个属的11种3个形态中，单纯内毛虫、微小内毛虫和矩形内毛虫在所有被检查的动物中均有发现。检测到的大型奥氏多核纤毛虫仅为多泡多膜袋虫和近缘变毛虫，它们被认为是伊迪提出的A型组成的典型成员。由于德之岛本地山羊长期在一个小岛上隔离饲养，生活在日本南部的本地山羊可能拥有A型动物区系。纤毛虫的平均密度为每1毫升瘤胃液43.9×10⁴个。每只宿主的物种数平均为8.3种。多样性指数平均为1.412。
