Abstract. Let $\frak{F}_\lambda, \lambda\in \mathbb{C}$, be the space of tensor densities of degree $\lambda$ on the supercircle $S^{1|1}$. We consider the superspace $\mathfrak{D}_{\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\mu}$ of bilinear differential operators from $\frak{F}_{\lambda_1}\otimes\frak{F}_{\lambda_2}$ to $\frak{F}_{\mu}$ as a module over the orthosymplectic superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of a canonical conformally equivariant symbol map from $\mathfrak{D}_{\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\mu}^k$ to the corresponding space of symbols. An explicit expression of the associated quantization map is also given.
