So far as we could determine the branches of the ectobronchido not exhibit a direct connection with any of the recurrent bron-chi. There is, however, an indirect connection through the dorso-bronchi, which anastomose on the one hand with ectobronchialbranches, and on the other hand, with twigs of the recurrentbronchi from the posterior and abdominal air-sacs. Besides the connections indicated, the cephalad parabronchi ofthe first ectobronchus also unite, through intermediation oftwigs from the dorsal branch of the second entobronchus. withrecurrent bronchi of the interclavicular 1 RecBr wj^^
