Dynamic pigmentary and structural coloration within cephalopod chromatophore organs

Dynamic pigmentary and structural coloration within cephalopod chromatophore organs

Chromatophore organs in cephalopod skin are known to produce ultra-fast changes in appearance for camouflage and communication. Light-scattering pigment granules within chromatocytes have been presumed to be the sole source of coloration in these complex organs. We report the discovery of structural...
