It has recently been found that iridescence, a taxonomically widespread form of animal coloration defined by a change in hue with viewing angle, can act as a highly effective form of camouflage. However, little is known about whether iridescence can

Summary Iridescence is a striking and taxonomically widespread form of animal coloration [1], but that its intense and varying hues could function as concealment [2] rather than signaling seems completely counterintuitive. Here, we show that the colo

Acacia senegal (hasbab) and Acacia seyal (talh) are two major gum producing trees found mostly in the Western Region of Sudan. Kordofan Province alone is responsible for 70 % of the national production of gum Arabic. After the long drought that laste
