Note(s): The present study provides the first measurements of O2 consumption and NH4+ and PO4 3– excretion for Stauroteuthis syrtensis collected in Oceanographer Canyon, a deep-water canyon that indents the southern boundary of Georges Bank. Furthermore, in situ observations from crewed submersibles documented the vertical distribution and behavior of these octopods in this and 2 adjacent canyons, Hydrographer and Lydonia Canyons.
