Abstract
1. 1. Using an electroretinographic technique, the eye of T. granulosa was found to be most sensitive to wavelengths of light in the vicinity of 600 nm, in both the dark- and light-adapted states. 2. 2. Ultra-violet sensitivity extends into the u.v.-B region (290–320 nm). 3. 3. The lens of the eye fluoresces in response to u.v. light in the range from 310 to 390 nm with an observed excitation maximum between 350 and 360 nm. 4. 4. Fluorescence of the lens may be a contributing factor in u.v. sensitivity.
