The reflecting units in the surfaces of silvery fish are small ‘platelets’ which have various orientations with respect to the surfaces in which they lie. In the fields of light found in the sea, these orientations are often such as to enable fis

Some pelagic decapod crustaceans have long trailing antennal ‘flagella’, the distal parts of which are heavily setosed. In these distal parts some setae form tubes known to contain mechanoreceptors and so resemble the lateral lines of many common
