divides the vitreous humour of the eye into
its cells -
Each leaflet receives distinct filaments given
off from the Pulmonary artery, which forms
a minutely anastomosing plexus around
its walls, and on the processes, which constitute
its interior cells. 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

In consequence of each leaflet re=
=ceiving several pedicels, from as many
distinct ultimate Bronchial tubes, there
is a very minute anastomosis established
