.../burrowing than Thamnophis . We found that P. melanoleucus expresses two cone opsins (SWS1, LWS) and rhodopsin (RH1) within the eye. Immunohistochemistry localized rhodopsin to the outer segment of photoreceptors in the all-cone retina of the snake and all opsin genes produced functional visual pigments when...

... objects or living organisms, or in signals displayed by conspecifics. UV visual pigments are based on opsins, the same family of proteins that are used to detect light in conventional photoreceptors. Despite some interesting exceptions, most animal species have a single photoreceptor class devoted...

... ) of the tilapia retinal cone photopigments (SWS1, 360 nm; RH2b, 472 nm) ( Spady et al., 2006 ). To better understand the interaction between photopigments, the visual pigment templates of SWS1 and RH2b were fitted to the erythrophore action spectrum plot ( Govardovskii et al., 2000 ; Sabbah et al., 2012...

The properties of the lenses correlate well with known complements of visual pigments and feeding habits. Lenticular zones focusing ultraviolet light were found in two diurnal...

A start has been made in trying to understand what tasks are best served...
