Habitat light sets the boundaries for the rapid evolution of cichlid fish vision, while sexual selection can tune it within those limits [PDF]
Abstract Cichlid fishes' famous diversity in body coloration is accompanied by a highly diverse and complex visual system. Although cichlids possess an unusually high number of seven cone opsin genes, they express only a subset of these during their ontogeny, accounting for their astonishing interspecific variation in visual sensitivities. Much of this
