Abstract
The flagella and the cell wall have been studied in a bacterium apparently belonging to the genus Spirillum. Owing to the twined condition of each bundle of flagella the bundles are easily visible in the phase-contrast microscope. The cell wall is composed of at least two membranes. The outer one contains or consists of a single layer of what may be spherical macromolecules with a diameter of 120–140 A. These are arranged in a hexagonal pattern.
