Glowing Green: A Quantitative Analysis of Photoluminescence in Six North American Bat Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
We provide a quantitative analysis to confirm visual observations of UV‐induced photoluminescence in six North American bat species. We observed green photoluminescence on the wings, uropatagium, and hind limbs of all 60 museum specimens examined. Our results suggest the potential for photoluminescence to be homologous in origin among the species we ...

A severely affected child born to consanguineous parents is interpreted as being a homozygote for the dominantly inherited piebald trait. The striking phenotypic difference between the parents and the child implies intermediate inheritance of this condition, and the family also illustrates that consanguinity should not always be taken to indicate ...
