Coexpression of Spectrally Distinct Rhodopsins in Aedes aegypti R7 Photoreceptors

The retina of the mosquito Aedes aegypti can be divided into four regions based on the non-overlapping expression of a UV sensitive Aaop8 rhodopsin and a long wavelength sensitive Aaop2 type rhodopsin in the R7 photoreceptors.
