Abstract: In this paper we study the matter form of the conformal and super-conformal ghosts action. That is, the ghost fields will be expressed in terms of some scalar and spinor fields. Thus, we obtain a two-dimensional covariant action in the matter form, $i.e.$ $S_g$. The Poincar'e-like symmetries and various supersymmetries of this covariant action are analyzed. The signatures 10+2 and 11+3 for the total target space of the superstring theory also will be discussed.
