The pigment of many is a littledarker than that in the pigment layer, but there are cells containinggrades of colored granules like those in the pigment layer and otherswith intermediate shares. The general appearance of these cells, theirnuclei and the staining of the jirotoplasm lead me to believe that mostif not all of them are derived from the pigment layer.
