Fish coloration
text:
Fish coloration, a subset of animal coloration, is extremely diverse. Fish across all taxa vary greatly in their coloration through special mechanisms, mainly pigment cells called chromatophores. Fish can have any colors of the visual spectrum on their skin, evolutionarily derived for many reasons. There are three factors to coloration, brightness, hue, and saturation. Fish coloration has three proposed functions: thermoregulation, intraspecific communication, and interspecific communication. Fi
