In the middleline they are separated from each other by a bony and fibro-cartilaginous septum ; upon the outer wall of each fossa, inthe dried skull, are three projecting processes, termed spongybones. In the fresh fossa, these are covered by a mucousmembrane. 882. The space that intervenes between the superior andmiddle spongy bone, is called the superior me-atus, or chan-nel ; the space between the middle and inferior bone, is themiddle meatus; and that between the inferior bone and thefloor of the fossa, is the inferior meatus.
