| Note(s): |
Groups of male Uca pugilator (Bosc) (Crustacea, Decapoda, Ocypodidae), acclimated to sublethal pressure (34 atm) subaqueously for 5 and 10 days, were observed subsequently at pressures up to 272 atm. Behavioral indicators of pressure resistance (first response and tetany) were employed to measure degrees of pressure acclimation in comparison with simultaneously and non-simultaneously conducted control experiments.
