            | Abstract |  
            | Bredon and Wood have given a complete answer to the embeddability question for
 nonorientable surfaces in lens spaces. They formulate their result in terms of
 a recursive formula that determines, for a given lens space, the minimal
 genus of embeddable nonorientable surfaces. Here we give a direct proof
 that, amongst lens spaces as target manifolds, the Klein bottle embeds into
 
 only.
 We describe four explicit realisations of these embeddings.
