Supplementary Movie 5:
Simulation of RGB colour shift at the surface of the first Brillouin zone of the FCC lattice of S-iridophores when gradually reducing the crystal lattice parameter (a) from 480 to 233 nm. The simulated colours closely match those observed in vivo (see Figure 1b in main text and Supplementary Movies 1-3) and during osmotic shock experiments (Figure 2c in main text and Supplementary Movie 4).
