“…In contrast, scaled, weightspecific respiration rates for S. syrtensis were at the lower end of ranges reported for cephalopods from shallow and deep water (0.9 to 7.8 µl O 2 g -1 WW h -1 in the present study versus 0. species use bioluminescence to lure prey (Childress & Mickel 1985, Johnsen et al 1999, Collins & Henriques 2000, Seibel & Carlini 2001, Robison et al 2003. In addition to differential activity, some of the observed differences in O 2 consumption may be related to allometric scaling, with larger animals consuming proportionally less O 2 , as observed in the present and previous studies (e.g.…”
