The tangent bundle \(TM\) of a Riemannian manifold \((M,g)\) has the structure of an almost Kählerian manifold. Generally, the unit tangent bundle \(T_1M\) of a Riemannian manifold, i.e., the hypersurface of the unit tangent vectors to \(M\), has not a CR-structure since the almost complex structure on \(TM\) is not integrable. The author shows that \(T_1M\) has a CR-structure if and only if the base manifold has constant curvature. Remark: A similar result has been obtained by \textit{S. Tanno} [Tôhoku Math. J. 44, 535-543 (1992; Zbl 0779.53024)].
