The authors study the relative equilibria for Dirichlet's model of a self-gravitating fluid mass having at least two equal axes. It is shown that the only relative equilibria of this type correspond to Riemann ellipsoids for which the angular velocity and vorticity are parallel to the same principal axis of the body configuration. The two solutions found are MacLaurin and transversal spheroids.
