Neogonodactylus oerstedii spectral sensitivities and quantum catch. (a) The spectral sensitivities of N. oerstedii's 12 photoreceptors involved in UV and visible spectrum light detection. (b) The quantum catch of each photoreceptor for a meral spot with UV present (coloured bars) or absent (grey bars). Quantum catch was calculated by multiplying a photoreceptor's spectral sensitivity by the reflectance spectrum of the meral spot and summing the result for that photoreceptor. Photoreceptors are labelled according to their row number in the midband (R1–R4) or ‘Pr’ if located in the hemispheres and whether proximal tier (P), distal tier (D) or R8 cell. Colours in each panel correspond to the same photoreceptor. Bars are mean ± s.e.m.
