SUMMARY Ultrastructural investigations of the development and structure of pseudocilia in Tetraspora lubrica and Schizochlamys sp. have disclosed interconnections between cytoptasmic microtubules and pseudo‐cilial basal bodies heretofore unreported. Connections between elements of the basal bodies and the proximal connecting fibers are also described. The possible significance of the interconnections in correlating structure and function of these organelles is discussed .
