Evidence for a sensitising pigment in fly photoreceptors.

K Kirschfeld, N Franceschini, B Minke.   

Abstract

Many photoreceptor cells in invertebrates have a dual-peak spectral sensitivity. Evidence is presented that in fly photoreceptors the ultraviolet peak is due to a photostable pigment that absorbs light quanta and transfers the energy to the blue-absorbing visual pigment.
