What is Chameleon Bone Fluorescence Discovery about?
This study reveals that many chameleon species possess bony tubercles on their skulls that fluoresce under UV light, a phenomenon previously undocumented in terrestrial vertebrates. The fluorescence, which is sexually dimorphic and varies among species, likely serves a signaling role in communication and mate selection. This discovery enhances our understanding of chameleon signaling and the ecological relevance of bone-based fluorescence in forest habitats.
