In this paper, the connection of the inverse transversal with the adequate transversal is explored. It is proved that if S is an abundant semigroup with an adequate transversal $S^o$, then S is regular if and only if $S^o$ is an inverse semigroup. It is also shown that adequate transversals of a regular semigroup are just its inverse transversals. By means of a quasi-adequate semigroup and a right normal band, we construct an abundant semigroup containing a quasi-ideal S-adequate transversal and conversely, every such a semigroup can be constructed in this manner. It is simpler than the construction of Guo and Shum [9] through an SQ-system and the construction of El-Qallali [5] by W(E, S).

In this paper, we give congruences on an abundant semigroup with a quasi-ideal S-adequate transversal $S^{\circ}$ by the congruence pair abstractly which consists of congruences on the structure component parts R and ${\Lambda}$. We prove that the set of all congruences on this kind of semigroups is a complete lattice.
