Pushing the limits of photoreception in twilight conditions: The rod-like cone retina of the deep-sea pearlsides
Most vertebrates have a duplex retina comprising two photoreceptor types, rods for dim-light (scotopic) vision and cones for bright-light (photopic) and color vision. However, deep-sea fishes are only active in dim-light conditions; hence, most species have lost their cones in favor of a simplex ret...
