This study was initiated to isolate, characterize and select symbiotically effective rhizobia nodulating lentil (Lens culinaris medic) and to enumerate of indigenous rhizobia nodulating lentil in some Ethiopian soils. More than 84nodule and soil samples were collected. In sand culture, only 62 isolates were authenticated as rhizobia nodulating lentil. Analyses of variance indicated that most of the parameters measured were significantly (p< 0.05) improved by inoculation except root length. Inoculation increased the shoot length, shoot dry weight, and plant total nitrogen as 82.3%,
