SHORTWAVE LIGHT FILTRATION IN FORMATION OF SPECTRAL SENSITIVITY FOR TWO SHRIMP POPULATIONS OF M. RELICTA (MYSIDA)

Abstract
It is known that spectral sensitivity curves of shrimp M. relicta (Crustacea) have more long-wave position than the actual spectra of their visual pigments. We evaluated the possible role of screening pigments in the formation of the long-wavelength shift. In microspectrophotometrical measurements of screening granules in the eyes of M. relicta it is shown that the most of the granules have a characteristic spectrum of xanthommatin (lmax 455 nm) with a selective absorption in the blue region. According to the mathematical calculations carried out, light filtering through these granules allows getting the spectral sensitivity curve that is identical to the real spectral sensitivity.
