• Effects of predation pressure on the cognitive ability of the poeciliid Brachyraphis episcopi (2005, background): “…to suspect that the fish could not perceive the colors on any of the tiles because fish inhabiting clear shallow waters typically have a broad visual capacity, seeing all the colors in the human visible spectrum as well as shorter wavelengths into UV (Endler et al., 2001; Smith et al., 2002).”
• Female European green lizards (Lacerta viridis) prefer males with high ultraviolet throat reflectance (2010, background): “For example, only recent studies have shown that ultraviolet (UV) signals are commonly used during sexual communication in birds and fish with UV perception (e.g. Bennett et al. 1996, 1997; Hunt et al. 1998; Cuthill et al. 2000; Smith et al. 2002; Siebeck 2004; Rick and Bakker 2008).”
