Visual metamorphoses in insects and malacostracans: Transitions between an aquatic and terrestrial life ...
Arthropods operate in an outrageous diversity of environments. From the deep sea to dense tropical forests, to wide open arctic tundra, they have colonized almost every possible habitat. Within these environments, the presence of light is nearly ubiquitous, varying in intensity, wavelength, and pola...
