Fig. 5. Retinal vasculature of: (A) Pagothenia borchgrevinki, an
Hb-expressing nototheniid (reproduced with permission from
Eastman and Lannoo, 2004). (B)
Chaenocephalus aceratus, a Hb-lacking icefish (J. Eastman and B. D.
Sidell, unpublished). Lenses and vitreous bodies have been removed from the
eyes to allow a clear view of the blood vessels. Yellow coloration is from
perfusion and filling of the vasculature with MicrofilTM
silicone rubber compound.
