In the latter cases the result isformation of false membranes of variable thickness which, as wehave learnt, are divided into croapotis and diphtheritic according asthey merely lie loose upon the surface of the mucous membrane orare intimately connected with it, although this distinction cannotalways be strictly carried out. The formation of the false membrane usually begins with necrosisof the epithelium, which is followed by the deposition of a coagulableexudation in the substance of the latter and upon its surface, eitherat once or in several instalments. In this way the false membrane.
