The deep ocean is home to some of the most unusual of all fishes. Practically every organ system is affected by the constraints imposed by benthic pressure, the absence of light and the relatively scarce supply of both food and mates. This book demonstrates how these fishes, living in extremely harsh conditions, metabolise, behave and evolve.
