Color cameras require a more complex construction to differentiate wavelength and color has less meaning outside of the normal visible spectrum because the differing wavelengths do not map uniformly into the system of color vision used by humans.

Behavioral experiments have shown that degus are able to discriminate ultraviolet light from the wavelengths visible to humans ; it is likely that this ultraviolet sensitivity has a social function, since both their ventral ( stomach ) fur and their urine are highly UV reflective.

Hawks, including the accipitrines, are believed to have vision several times as sharp as that of the human species, in part because of the great number of photoreceptor cells in their retinas ( up to 1, 000, 000 per square mm, against 200, 000 for humans ), a very high number of nerves connecting the receptors to the brain, and an indented fovea, which magnifies the central portion of the visual field.

They are aggregations of lymphoid tissue that are usually found in the lowest portion of the small intestine, the ileum, in humans ; as such, they differentiate the ileum from the duodenum and jejunum.
