News, Amphibians glow like deep sea fish
This news article discusses how some amphibians absorb blue and ultraviolet light and can re-emit neon green light (which is not obvious to the human eye).
News, Beating the heat in the living wings of butterflies
Engineers and biologists discover that butterflies have specialized behaviors and wing scales to protect the living parts of their wings. The nanostructures found in the wing scales could inspire the design of radiative-cooling materials to help manage excessive heat conditions; the sensory network in the wings could inspire the design of advanced flying machines.
