A modified single step silver colloidal staining method for interpretation of routine vaginal smears of buffaloes which aids in analysing every component under light microscope with minimum efforts has been suggested, and it can be adopted in all clinical laboratories. A novel population of parabasal cells has been described which was distinct in morphology and nuclear distribution of silver stained structures (SSS). These SSS has been designated as the 'parabasal dots'. The significance of these cells needs further investigation and confirmation.
