Lohi pulmonis. — Deep fissures, cutting the substance of the organ to its 

 root, divide each lung into lobes. The left lung is completely divided into 

 two parts, of which the more cranial is, in its turn, partially subdivided. The 

 completely isolated lobe is basal in position and is related to the diaphragm — 

 the diaphragmatic lobe (lobus diaphragmatic us). The imperfectly separated 

 lobes may be known as apical (lobus apicalis) and cardiac (lobus cardiacus) 

 from their position and relations.

The right lung has apical, cardiac, and diaphragmatic lobes completely 

 separated from each other, and, in addition, an intermediate lobe (lobus inter- 

 medins) occupying the space between the diaphragmatic lobes of the two lungs, 

 the heart, and the diaphragm. The intermediate lobe is irregularly pyramidal, 

 with its base appUed to the diaphragm. At its ventral angle there is a deep, 

 rounded notch, m which are lodged the caudal vena cava, the right phrenic 

 nerve, and the fold of pleura associated with these structures. 



The lateral or costal surface (facies costalis) of each lung is smooth and 

 glistening from the presence upon it of visceral pleura. Being appUed closely
