This epithelium terminates, by abruptly-defined borders, at the commence- ment of the true pulmonary tissue, (ft) This fact was first shown by Mr. Rainey: subsequent observers have, however, proved, contrary to the opinion of Mr. Rainey, that the epithelial layer docs not wholly cease at these points (b). It is prolonged over the respiratory segment under the character of •pavement-epithelium. The true bronchi, in every part of the lung, are distinguished by their tubular form and smooth walls (a, /;) — characters in which they contrast with the loculated aspect of the in- tercellular passages. The walls of the minutest bronchi are composed of three coats: a mucous, a mus- cular, and fibrous. Schroeder van der Kolk has proved that unstriped muscular fibres are contained in the parietes of the smallest of these tubes. The illustrations which accom- Fig. 209.
