If you mean the black and white, then it is called counter-shading. Counter-shading is whne an animal is dark on the top and light on the bottom. It is dark on the top, so when an animal or person is looking at it from above, it blends into the bottom of the sea or ocean or lake, or whatever body of water. It is light so when an animal or person is looking up at it, it blends into the sunlight. It is a kind of defense i suppose.
