“…Using electrophysiological studies, we confirmed the presence of two photoreceptors, one for blue (450 nm) and the other for green (510-530 nm) in L. sericata from Colombia. The sensitivity observed in the violet range (400 nm) after selective adaptation experiments (Figure 3 Besides, the ranges of sensitivity measured for L. sericata adults from Colombia are similar to those reported for other populations (McFadden & Hans, 2019) and also for other diurnal and nocturnal insects with the presence of receptors to blue, green, and UV, like Euglossa dilemma (Dexheimer et al, 2023), Rhodnius prolixus (Ortiz et al, 2023), Myzus persicae (Kirchner et al, 2005), Glossina sp (Steverding & Troscianko, 2004) and Arachnocampa luminosa (Meyer & Eguchi, 1984).…”
