โœฆ Synopsis

The possibility of sympathetic innervation to melanophores in fish was investigated using a catecholamine histochemical fluorescence method. Catecholamine-containing fibers were observed to be in close anatomic proximity to the conjunctival and dermal melanophores of the cunner (Tautogolabrus adspersus). It is suggested that the catecholamines released from these adrenergic fibers are capable of causing aggregation OP pigment with blanching of skin color.

The adrenergic innervation of structures in the gills of six teleost species was studied with catecholamine fluorescence histochemistry.

Responses of melanophores of the teleost, Zacco temmincki, to local light stimulation were examined in preparations of isolated scales. The melanophores induced the aggregation of melanosomes in darkness and their dispersion in light. Local illumination of a melanophore in the melanosomedispersed st
