Each part of these receives also a very complete supply of still more minute vessels, derived from the Bronchial artery - The shape of these leaflets has already been partially described, as presenting three distinct surfaces, each defined by a margin more or less acute. The basement membrane of these leaflets is a continuation or expansion from the fibrous structure of the Bronchial tubes and forms a tough elastic capsule which limits the form of the lobules and leaflets, and dips down into the sulci between each of them - Anastomosis of ultimate Bron= =chial tubes In consequence of each leaflet re= =ceiving several pedicels, from as many distinct ultimate Bronchial tubes, there is a very minute anastomosis established
