the eyes of catfish

Post by gianpiero »

hi everyone!!!
I'm a new entry... :D

I found this work on the web:

"the eyes of suckermouth armoured catfish (Loricariidae...):pupil response, lenticular longitudinal spherical aberration and retinal topography"

I'm looking for other works like that.

something about the eyes of catfish, anatomy and physiology.

thanks!!!!!!
