It isn't very big, and some of the eyespots are wonky.
2
In some species, the eyespots are covered by skin.
3
In butterflies, eyespots have evolved as new pattern elements that develop from special organizers called foci.
4
The creature had eyespots on each side of its head-itwould not be easy to surprise.
5
Hagfish don't have compound eyes that can resolve images, but instead possess simple eyespots that can detect light.

However, the role of chloroplasts in eyespot formation is not understood.
2
The 'piece de resistance' of the back wing, is the eyespot.
3
Like human eyes, though, that eyespot makes use of light-sensitive proteins.
4
These results suggest that light-shielding property of the eyespot is essential for determination of phototactic sign.
5
Suction pipette recordings have revealed that flash stimulation causes calcium currents into the eyespot and the flagella.
6
Our recent study revealed that carotenoids in the eyespot apparatus are required for triggering phototaxis in this alga.
7
The developmental and genetic bases for the formation, plasticity and diversity of eyespot patterns in butterflies are examined.
8
Our two organisms had only a single chloroplast and no zoospore eyespot, but their gene sequences differed substantially.
9
A whole eyespot may come, or it may go... leaving the field of the cell plain and without a speck.
10
Using a newly constructed confocal microscope we have studied how absorption and reflection of eyespot and cell body shape this directivity.
11
Thus most of the attenuation of light reaching the eyespot from the rear is due to chlorophyll and other pigments within the cell.
12
In agreement with previous results the eyespot was found to be highly reflectant, owing to its interference reflector design, but only for yellow light.
