Evolution of pineal non-visual opsins in lizards and the tuatara (Lepidosauria)

Ricardo D. Romero, Flávio S. J. de Souza

The paper identifies a novel opsin gene, OPNLEP, in lepidosaurs and shows its correlation with the presence of a parietal eye and losses of non-visual opsins in certain lizard clades.
