When changing habitat during migration or ontogenesis, fish encounter changes of the visual environment, among which the most important is the spectral composition of light and turbidity. This leads to changes in the behavior, morphology, and physiology of the visual system, in particular, spectral sensitivity, which is determined by the properties of visual pigments. The masked greenling Hexagrammos octogrammus has an additional factor that shapes effective spectral sensitivity-the presence of densely bright orange cornea which reversibly changes its density depending on the state of light/dark adaptation.

A simple and effective ultrasound-assisted dispersive micro solid-phase extraction (UA-dμSPE) method was developed for the spectrophotometric determination of traces maneb in food and water. In this study, a new hybrid block copolymer poly (vinyl benzyl chloride-b-dimethyl aminoethyl methacrylate) (Pvb-DMA) was synthesized and characterized using techniques such as FTIR, SEM-EDX. The synthesized Pvb-DMA was used as an adsorbent for the extraction of maneb for first time in this study.

Bluelined goatfish (Upeneichthys lineatus) exhibit dynamic body colour changes and transform rapidly from a pale, buff/white, horizontally banded pattern to a conspicuous, vertically striped, red pattern when foraging. This red pattern is potentially an important foraging signal for communication with conspecifics, provided that U. lineatus can detect and discriminate the pattern.

Changes in visual pigments were studied in two marine fish species, the masked greenling Hexagrammos octogrammus and the prickleback Pholidapus dybowskii. A microspectrophotometric (MSP) analysis showed that the rods and cones of the fish collected from the natural marine environment in summer or kept in a tank at a high illumination level predominantly contained porphyropsins based on chromophore A2. As a result, λ of the double cones significantly shifted to longer wavelengths, reaching 625 and 609 nm, respectively.

The spectral characteristics of visual pigments are a major determinant in eliciting a response to light. To study the absorption maximum of the photoreceptors and their sensitivity to light in fish, rod outer segments (ROS) and cone cells were purified from the rock bream Oplegnathus fasciatus adapted to the dark. Ultraviolet/visible spectroscopic analyses of the ROS in the dark and its difference spectra indicated an absorption maximum of the visual pigment at ~ 500 nm, and each eye of 1-year-old rock bream contained at least 1.
