Abstract
The theory of slice-regular functions of a quaternion variable is applied to the study of orthogonal complex structures on domains of . When is a symmetric slice domain, the twistor transform of such a function is a holomorphic curve in the Klein quadric. The case in which is the complement of a parabola is studied in detail and described by a rational quartic surface in the twistor space .
