The laminar-turbulent transition of spherical Couette flow between two independently rotating concentric spheres for the gap ratio 0.14 where the Taylor instability occurs was investigated by simultaneous spectral and flow-visualization measurements. The conclusions are as follows. Rotation frequencies of disturbances do not so depend on the ratio of the outer- to the inner-sphere rotating Reynolds number if they are non-dimensionalized by the mean rotation frequency of both spheres. Herring-bone waves and wavy shear waves appear with increasing rotation effect for the co-rotating spheres, while spiral vortices and twists appear with increasing shear effect for the counter-rotating spheres. Flow regimes and their occurrence-region in the plane of the inner- and outer-sphere rotating Reynolds numbers differ by the Reynolds-number history.
