Stimulation and Photography of Bioluminescence in Lanternfishes (Myctophidae)

Abstract

Hydrogen peroxide injections and application evoked luminescence in Tarletonbeania crenularis taylori and Protomyctophum thompsoni, but did not cause Stenobrachius leucopsarus to luminesce. Neither formalin nor electric shock were especially effective in stimulating luminescence in any of the above three species. The luminescent organs of myctophids were photographed by their own light.
