colouration
Colouration refers to the colors or patterns exhibited by an object, organism, or material. In biology, it specifically refers to the variety of pigments and patterns on the skin, fur, or feathers of an animal. It can serve various functions such as camouflage, attracting mates, or signaling danger. But, more broadly, colouration can refer to the hue, saturation, or brightness that characterizes any visible thing.
