Buoyancy and hydrostatic balance in a West Indian Ocean coelacanth Latimeria chalumnae

BACKGROUND: Buoyancy and balance are important parameters for slow-moving, low-metabolic, aquatic organisms. The extant coelacanths have among the lowest metabolic rates of any living vertebrate and can afford little energy to keep station. Previous observations on living coelacanths support the hyp...
