[Electron microscopic studies on the retina of the honey bee (Apis mellifica): II. Investigations on reactions of the fine structure of the rhabdomeric tubuli after exposure to various experimental influences, especially to light of different wavelength (author's transl)].

Electron microscopic studies were made on the fine structure of the rhabdomeric tubuli of the honey bee-eye after exposure to white and monochromatic light. Several preparation and fixation techniques were tested. A method to irradiate the eyes in vitro by high intensity of white or monochromatic light was developped.
