• iridescence: iridis s. arcus coelestis colores, qui subinde mutantur: cf. Plin. 37, 9, 52, colores arcus coelestis ... ejaculatur [gemma] subinde mutans, magnaque varietate admirationem sui augens: cf. also Sen. N. Q. 1, 7, where such play of colour is described as species falsi coloris qualem columbarum cervix et sumit et ponit, utcunque deflectitur.
