Women can have two different long-wavelength cones {L-cone} {L photopigment}, one short-wavelength cone {S-cone} {S photopigment}, and one middle-wavelength cone {M-cone} {M photopigment}, and so have four different pigments {tetrachromacy}. Half of men have one or the other long-wavelength cone [Asenjo et al., 1994] [Jameson et al., 2001] [Jordan and Mollon, 1993] [Nathans, 1999].
