Lung Development in the Chick 1) General Features of Lung Development. The development of lungs in the chick differs greatly from that in the Amphibia and other vertebrates. (For a thorough description of the developing lung of the chick, reference should be made to Locy and Larsell, '16, a and b.) Lung development begins during the first part of the third day of incubation in the form of ventro-lateral, ridge-like enlargements of the pharynx, imme- diately posterior to the fourth pair of branchial (visceral) pouches. These evaginations arise from a ventral, groove-like trough of the pharyngeal floor (fig. 306A). The entire area of the pharyngeal floor, where the lung rudiments begin to develop, gradually sinks below the pharyngeal-esophageal level, and its remaining connection with the pharynx proper is the laryngotracheal groove in the floor of the pharynx (fig. 306B, C). After the lung and tracheal rudiments are formed, they extend backward. Please note that these images are
