    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchung der Radien des Goldkuckucks [Chrysococcyx cupreus (Shaw)] kann die Entstehung der Schillerfarben in diesen Federn erklärt werden: 10–20 Schichten von Melaninstäben, mit der Dicke von 0,077 μ und in regelmäßigen Abständen von 0,091 μ, erzeugen nach dem Prinzip der Interferenz an dünnen Plättchen die intensiv goldgrüne Farbe. Mit Hilfe des Raster-Elektronenmikroskops wird dargestellt, wie sich die Schillerradien, deren farberzeugende Struktur sich sowohl auf die Basallamelle wie auch das Pennulum ausdehnt, zu einer flugtüchtigen Federfahne koppeln.
    Notes: Summary The barbules ofChrysococcyx cupreus (Shaw) (Cuculinae) have been investigated electron microscopically in order to explain how the iridescent colours of these feathers are produced. 10 to 20 layers of melanine rods, 0.077 microns thick and placed at regular distances of 0.091 microns, produce, on the principle of the interference of the “colours of thin leaves”, the intensely golden green colour. With the help of a scanning electron microscope it is shown how the iridescent barbules, whose colour producing structure extends to both the basal lamellae and the pennulum, link up to form an airworthy feather vane.
