Abstract The distribution of 5 groups of protozoan cells among soil aggregates from an arable field soil was investigated, by incubating each aggregate (1–2 mm) in a ring on an agar plate with a prey bacterium and detecting emergent-active forms of each group from respective aggregates. The detection of each protozoan group was especially affected by scattered times of the excystment and the rapid re-encystment owing to food exhaustion. The cumulative number of protozoan-positive rings obtained through observation at short time intervals, therefore, provided us with more reliable results.It was shown that the distribution of protozoan cells was not even but greatly conglomerative among soil aggregates.
