Hogfish are the chameleons of the Atlantic Ocean, seamlessly changing their skin color depending on their environment. As if those morphing skills weren't impressive enough, these reef dwellers can also"see" with their skin with the help of special light-sensing cells, even after they die, according to a study published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications.
"They appear to be watching their own color change," Schweikert, who is also the lead author of the study, said in a statement. Now Schweikert and her co-authors think they've discovered how this color-shifting magic works by identifying specialized light-sensing cells located beneath a layer of color-changing cells in the hogfish's skin. This system enables them to watch their skin change color and adjust it to match their surroundings, according to the study.This finding comes on the heels of a 2018 study in which Schweikert and her colleagues identified light-detecting proteins in hogfish skin.
