Ultraviolet‐A radiation (320–400 nm) is scattered rapidly in water. Despite this fact, UV is
present in biologically useful amounts to at least 100 m deep in clear aquatic environments …

Many coral reef fish are beautifully coloured and the reflectance spectra of their colour
patterns may include UVa wavelengths (315–400 nm) that are largely invisible to the human …

The colors of 51 species of Hawaiian reef fish have been measured using a spectrometer
and therefore can be described in objective terms that are not influenced by the human …

Near-UV visual pigments have been reported in single cones of several freshwater and
euryhaline fishes. The presence of UV visual pigments in stenohaline marine fishes have, as …

The visual biology of Hawaiian reef fishes was explored by examining their eyes for spectral
sensitivity of their visual pigments and for transmission of light through the ocular media to …

In many vertebrates, UV-sensitive photoreceptors have been identified by
microspectrophotometry and UV-visual sensitivity has been identified by behavioral studies …

Ultraviolet (UV) vision is well documented for many species of vertebrates. UV cues are
known to be used in foraging, navigation and in mate choice. We conducted a series of …

Microspectrophotometric analysis of the visual receptors of “yearling” brown trout, Salmo
trutta, revealed three cone types, double cones with visual pigments absorbing maximally at …

Although several studies have shown that ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths are important in
naturally occurring, visually guided behaviours of vertebrates, the function of the UV cone in …
