Note: In all air-breathing vertebrates the lungs are                developed from the ventral wall of the esophagus as a                pouch which divides into two sacs. In amphibians and                many reptiles the lungs retain very nearly this                primitive saclike character, but in the higher forms                the connection with the esophagus becomes elongated                into the windpipe and the inner walls of the sacs                become more and more divided, until, in the mammals,                the air spaces become minutely divided into tubes                ending in small air cells, in the walls of which the                blood circulates in a fine network of capillaries. In                mammals the lungs are more or less divided into lobes,                and each lung occupies a separate cavity in the thorax.                See {Respiration}.          {Lung fever} (Med.), pneumonia.          {Lung flower} (Bot.), a species of gentian ({G.             Pneumonanthe}).          {Lung lichen} (Bot.), tree lungwort.
