Red fluorescence of the triplefin Tripterygion delaisi is increasingly visible against background light with increasing depth

The light environment in water bodies changes with depth due to the absorption of short and long wavelengths. Below 10 m depth, red wavelengths are almost completely absent rendering any red-reflecting animal dark and achromatic. However, fluorescence may produce red coloration even when red light i...
