Iris fluorescence regulation mechanisms of Tripterygion delaisi. Melanophore state modulation is fast and covers or uncovers fluorescence as an instant response to a current chance in conditions [24]. Chromophore number and pigmentation change is much slower and is the presumed mechanism behind the relationship between depth and fluorescence [10]
