Olfactory epithelium cells

Olfactory cells
Sustentacular cells - located mainly in the superficial cell layer of the epithelium (difficult to distinguish from olfactory cells).
Basal cells - identified by their location.

Epithelium

Lamina Propria

olfactory axon bundles (lightly stained, rounded areas) connected to olfactory cells.
Bowman's glands - (small mucous glands, olfactory glands) function to moisturise the epithelium.
