1. The alveoli possess an epithelial lining.

2. This epithelium is composed of flat nucleated cells. The existence of the non -nucleated cells has not been demonstrated.

3. In addition to the purely epithelial cells, certain cuboidal cells, "septal cells," are found which have been demonstrated to have a phagocytic function and to stain specifically with Hortega's silver carbonate. These are part of the reticuloendothelial system and give rise by mitosis to the free alveolar phagocytes.
