Abstract

A survey of the pressure resistance of aquatic animals in different stages of their life cycle shows that adults generally are more tolerant of pressure than the egg and nauplii, but older adults appear less pressure resistant than younger adults. Data on many species of aquatic animals of different size shows no correlation between size and pressure resistance. It is concluded that size is not a special determinant in the successful deep‐sea colonization of shallow‐water animals and this is consonant with the fact of occasional large deep‐sea species whereas the average size is quite small in comparison with littoral species.
