New insights into the retinal microstructure-diurnal activity relationship in the African five-lined skink (Trachylepis quinquetaeniata) (Lichtenstein, 1823)

Abstract Background The retinae of diurnal vertebrates have characteristics. Most lizards are strictly diurnal, and their retinal morphology is still unknown. Materials and methods The retina of the African five-lined skink (Trachylepis quinquetaeniata) was studied using light and transmission elect...
