Adaptive colour change and background choice behaviour in peppered moth caterpillars is mediated by extraocular photoreception
Light sensing by tissues distinct from the eye occurs in diverse animal groups, enabling circadian control and phototactic behaviour. Extraocular photoreceptors may also facilitate rapid colour change in cephalopods and lizards, but little is known about the sensory system that mediates slow colour...
