Great! --- Another very interesting link found on same page:

Mantis Shrimp Fluoresce To Enhance Signaling In The Dim Ocean Depths




ScienceDaily (Nov. 18, 2003) — Berkeley - The tropical mantis shrimp has the most sophisticated eyes of any creature on the planet, yet it often lives at murky depths where the only light is a filtered, dim blue. Why does it need such complex vision?








"...Marine biologists and physiologists have now discovered at least one use for these eyes in the deep, blue ocean: to see the fluorescent markings mantis shrimp use to signal or threaten one another..." Rest


(Not "Alien boobies" re: CurtS/"Inwall75" - )
