## Abstract The photoreceptors of __Boa constrictor__, a boid snake of the subfamily Boinae, were examined with scanning electron microscopy and microspectrophotometry. The retina of __B. constrictor__ is duplex but highly dominated by rods, cones comprising 11% of the photoreceptor population. The

Three different cone photoreceptor visual pigments in the retina of striped marlin __Tetrapturus audax__ were found with the aid of microspectrophotometry. This provides the first evidence for the basis of colour vision in the Istiophoridae. Furthermore, regional variations in photoreceptor density,
