Conflict between background matching and social signalling in a colour-changing freshwater fish [PDF]
, 2016 The ability to change coloration allows animals to modify their patterning to suit a specific function. Many freshwater fishes, for example, can appear cryptic by altering the dispersion of melanin pigment in the skin to match the visual background ...
