许多双翅虫制成标本后，其皮毛颜色发生了显著变化。这些双翅虫和其他双翅虫一样，在紫外线下也会发出荧光（通常是壮观的）。至少在一些负鼠身上，荧光材料显然是在毛发内部，而不仅仅是附着在毛发上。3-羟基氰酸似乎部分地负责这种荧光，可能与色氨酸分解代谢的其他产物一起。
Many didelphids show remarkable color changes of the pelage after they are prepared as specimens. These didelphids, along with others, also show fluorescence (often-spectacular) under ultraviolet light. In some opossums at least, the fluorescent materials are apparently inside the hairs rather than merely adhering to them. 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid seems to be in part responsible for this fluorescence, presumably along with other products of tryptophan catabolism.
