Spatial organization of the structural color system in the quetzal, Pharomachrus mocinno (Aves: Trogonidae) and evolutionary implications
El quetzal, Pharomachrus mocinno, es un ave neotropical con coloración estructural verde, la cual parece ser críptica. Un estudio con microscopio electrónico de barrido mostró que las bárbulas verdes tienen forma de gruesas cintas segmentadas que se tuercen ligeramente sobre el eje longitudinal y te...
