The inner layer, referred to as the Visceral (or 'pulmonary') Pleura Layer covers the actual surface of the lungs closely and is connected to the entire surface of the lungs. This layer of the pleura is somewhat moist and gives the lungs a soft and smooth surface to allow for free movement within the outer layer (The Parietal lining).
Linking the Parietal and the Visceral Layers is the intrapleural space.
The intrapleural space is an area containing fluids that are provided by membranes. These fluids permit the parietal and visceral layers to move against each other during respiration as the lungs inflate and deflate, continuously.
