ABSTRACT Ectothermic vertebrates exhibit a diverse array of pigment cell types—chromatophores—that provide valuable opportunities to uncover mechanisms of fate specification and how they evolve. Like melanocytes of mammals, the melanophores of teleosts and other ectotherms depend on basic helix–loop–helix leucine zipper transcription factors encoded by
