✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Capture of living deep‐sea animals is reviewed. The conditions for the successful recovery of living animals from the deep‐sea are elaborated with examples. Control of pressure, temperature, or both, appears to be a prerequisite for the capture of living deep‐sea animals. Deep‐sea animals (archibenthal) show a loss of the R~1~ response in comparison with their shallow‐water counterparts. Genuine deep‐sea animals have now been recovered in a living state suitable for experimentation from the High Arctic.

The results of these experiments lead us to seriously question the commonly stated and often quoted hy

## Abstract Behavioral responses of marine and aquatic animals are characterized as __R__~1~ (a first response of prolonged excitation), __T__ (tetany or paralysis), __I__ (inactivity and relaxation) and death as measured by the LD~50~. R~1~, __T__, and __I__ are reversible responses and temperatur

## Abstract Study on the total spectrum of organisms (72 species) subjected to hydrostatic pressure as of this date allows one to established categories of pressure tolerance (resistance): Extremely high – eurybiotic forms (1000–1200 atm), High – marine littoral, planktonic, freshwater (600–1000 at
