214 STOMACH GLANDS OF THE RAT AND RABIUT 
follows : 
1. 
Tlic cells of the Fundus gland may be divided into four kinds: 
a. Superficial epithelium cells. 
b. Intermediate cells. 
c. Chief cells, 
d. Parietal cells. 
2. 
Among the superficial epithel cells there are no parietal cells. 
3. 
parietal cells with two nuclei are not to be found. 
4. 
Among the intermediate cells the parietal cells are rarely found. 
5. 
Intermediary cells between the chief cells and parietal cells are absent. 
6. 
The histological structure of the superficial epithelium cells of the Fundus 
gland is similar to those of the cardia gland. 
The Fundus glands of hares and rabbits occupy two-thirds of the stomach 
surface. The cells of the fundus glands, in this case, are divided into four 
kinds : superficial epithelium cells, intermediate cells, chief cells and parietal 
cells. 
The chief cells are not affected with eosin or only very slightly, but the 
superficial epithel cells give a very good reaction ; the intermediate cells give 
a correspondingly medium reaction. In this case the parietal cells are very 
large and occur in greater numbers among the intermediate cells than in the case 
of the rat. Among the superficial epithel cells, as in the rat, none are found. 
In 1879, Langley and Sewell divided the surface of the stomach into four 
regions : 
1.) Fundus (the gland showing comparatively few parietal cells). 2.) 
Large curvature. 3.) Small curvature. 4.) Pylorus. 
I, however, have not been able to find such regions by the histological
