Coloration in Mammals.
Caro T, Mallarino R. Caro T, et al. Trends Ecol Evol. 2020 Apr;35(4):357-366. doi: 10.1016/j.tree.2019.12.008. Epub 2020 Jan 22. Trends Ecol Evol. 2020. PMID: 31980234 Free PMC article. Review.
Mammalian colors and color patterns are some of the most diverse and conspicuous traits found in nature and have been widely studied from genetic/developmental and evolutionary perspectives. In this review we first discuss the proximate causes underlying vari …

Genetic isolation by distance underlies colour pattern divergence in red-eyed treefrogs (Agalychnis callidryas).
Clark MI, Bradburd GS, Akopyan M, Vega A, Rosenblum EB, Robertson JM. Clark MI, et al. Mol Ecol. 2022 Mar;31(6):1666-1681. doi: 10.1111/mec.16350. Epub 2022 Jan 28. Mol Ecol. 2022. PMID: 35034406 Free PMC article.
We characterized patterns of genetic and phenotypic diversity to learn about drivers of colour-pattern diversification in red-eyed treefrogs (Agalychnis callidryas) in Costa Rica. ...We found no evidence that colour-pattern polymorphism in the t …

A Ball Python Colour Morph Implicates MC1R in Melanophore-Xanthophore Distribution and Pattern Formation.
Garcia-Elfring A, Roffey HL, Abergas JM, Wuyts J, Hendry AP, Tzika AC, Barrett RDH. Garcia-Elfring A, et al. Pigment Cell Melanoma Res. 2025 Jan;38(1):e13215. doi: 10.1111/pcmr.13215. Epub 2024 Nov 28. Pigment Cell Melanoma Res. 2025. PMID: 39609249
Reptiles showcase an extensive array of skin colours and patterns, yet little is known about the genetics of reptile colouration. Here, we investigate the genetic basis of the Clown colour morph found in captive-bred ball pythons (Python regius) to stu …

Distribution of colour-selective activity in the monkey inferior temporal cortex revealed by functional magnetic resonance imaging.
Harada T, Goda N, Ogawa T, Ito M, Toyoda H, Sadato N, Komatsu H. Harada T, et al. Eur J Neurosci. 2009 Nov;30(10):1960-70. doi: 10.1111/j.1460-9568.2009.06995.x. Epub 2009 Nov 11. Eur J Neurosci. 2009. PMID: 19912328
Previous electrophysiological, neuroimaging and lesion studies have suggested that the anterior part of the monkey inferior temporal (IT) cortex, or area TE, plays an important role in colour processing. However, little is known about how colour information is di

Categorical colour geometry.
Griffin LD, Mylonas D. Griffin LD, et al. PLoS One. 2019 May 10;14(5):e0216296. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0216296. eCollection 2019. PLoS One. 2019. PMID: 31075109 Free PMC article.
Ordinary language users group colours into categories that they refer to by a name e.g. pale green. Data on the colour categories of English speakers was collected using online crowd sourcing - 1,000 subjects produced 20,000 unconstrained names for 600 colour

Optimal background matching camouflage.
Michalis C, Scott-Samuel NE, Gibson DP, Cuthill IC. Michalis C, et al. Proc Biol Sci. 2017 Jul 12;284(1858):20170709. doi: 10.1098/rspb.2017.0709. Proc Biol Sci. 2017. PMID: 28701559 Free PMC article.
Background matching is the most familiar and widespread camouflage strategy: avoiding detection by having a similar colour and pattern to the background. Optimizing background matching is straightforward in a homogeneous environment, or when the habitat has very dis …

Representing Color Ensembles.
Chetverikov A, Campana G, Kristjánsson Á. Chetverikov A, et al. Psychol Sci. 2017 Oct;28(10):1510-1517. doi: 10.1177/0956797617713787. Epub 2017 Sep 1. Psychol Sci. 2017. PMID: 28862923
Colors are rarely uniform, yet little is known about how people represent color distributions. We introduce a new method for studying color ensembles based on intertrial learning in visual search. Participants looked for an oddly colored diamond

Of bars and stripes: A Malawi cichlid hybrid cross provides insights into genetic modularity and evolution of modifier loci underlying colour pattern diversification.
Gerwin J, Urban S, Meyer A, Kratochwil CF. Gerwin J, et al. Mol Ecol. 2021 Oct;30(19):4789-4803. doi: 10.1111/mec.16097. Epub 2021 Aug 7. Mol Ecol. 2021. PMID: 34322938
Also, the genetic basis of the most common colour pattern in African cichlids, vertical bars, and potential interactions between the two colour patterns remain unknown. Based on a hybrid cross of the horizontally striped Lake Malawi cichlid Pseudotroph …

Latitudinal gradients in avian colourfulness.
Cooney CR, He Y, Varley ZK, Nouri LO, Moody CJA, Jardine MD, Liker A, Székely T, Thomas GH. Cooney CR, et al. Nat Ecol Evol. 2022 May;6(5):622-629. doi: 10.1038/s41559-022-01714-1. Epub 2022 Apr 4. Nat Ecol Evol. 2022. PMID: 35379937 Free article.
It has long been suggested that tropical species are generally more colourful than temperate species, but whether latitudinal gradients in organismal colourfulness exist remains controversial. ...Taken together, our results reveal that species' colourfulness
