The electroretinographic (ERG) responses to single light flashes and to flickering lights were obtained in the tawny owl (Strix aluco). The waveform of the single-flash responses indicated that the owl possesses a duplex retina. Spectral sensitivity was determined with light flickering at a 6 and 25 Hz. The sensitivity curve obtained from the 6-Hz responses has a broad maximum between 500 and 525 nm. The 25-Hz sensitivity curve is narrow with a peak at about 600 nm. The sensitivity curves are compared with behaviorally measured sensitivity curves of the pigeon. A close agreement is found between 25-Hz curve and the pigeon red modulator.
在仓鸮（Strix aluco）中获得了对单次闪光和闪烁光的视网膜电图（ERG）反应。单次闪光反应的波形表明，这种猫头鹰拥有双重视网膜。在6Hz和25Hz频率下闪烁光测定了光谱敏感性。从6Hz反应获得的敏感性曲线在500至525nm之间有一个宽的最大值。25Hz敏感性曲线较窄，峰值约在600nm处。将这些敏感性曲线与行为测量的鸽子敏感性曲线进行了比较。发现25Hz曲线与鸽子红色调制器之间有密切的一致性。
