市政照明技术的发展正在改变人工照明栖息地的光谱特征。虽然动物的各种行为依赖于检测物体反射的光的光谱特征，但人们对这种变化的生物学后果知之甚少。使用之前发表的视觉色素吸收峰值波长，我们比较了四种替代路灯技术如何通过产生对视觉敏感的不同波长范围的光来影响213种蜘蛛、昆虫、鸟类、爬行动物和哺乳动物的视觉能力。比较了每盏灯发射的光谱中视觉可检测区域的比例，以提供不同技术可能如何促进视觉引导行为的指示，例如检测环境中的物体。与窄光谱灯相比，广谱技术使动物能够探测到在它们敏感的更多光谱上反射光线的物体，重要的是，这种能力在主要分类类群之间造成了更大的差异。因此，广谱路灯的引入可能会改变人工照明环境中物种相互作用的平衡。
Technological developments in municipal lighting are altering the spectral characteristics of artificially lit habitats. Little is yet known of the biological consequences of such changes, although a variety of animal behaviours are dependent on detecting the spectral signature of light reflected from objects. Using previously published wavelengths of peak visual pigment absorbance, we compared how four alternative street lamp technologies affect the visual abilities of 213 species of arachnid, insect, bird, reptile and mammal by producing different wavelength ranges of light to which they are visually sensitive. The proportion of the visually detectable region of the light spectrum emitted by each lamp was compared to provide an indication of how different technologies are likely to facilitate visually guided behaviours such as detecting objects in the environment. Compared to narrow spectrum lamps, broad spectrum technologies enable animals to detect objects that reflect light over more of the spectrum to which they are sensitive and, importantly, create greater disparities in this ability between major taxonomic groups. The introduction of broad spectrum street lamps could therefore alter the balance of species interactions in the artificially lit environment.
