Respiratory responses to progressive hypoxia in the Amazonian oscar, Astronotus ocellatus
This study determined the respiratory responses to progressive hypoxia in oscar, an extremely hypoxia-tolerant Amazonian cichlid. Oscar depressed oxygen consumption rates (over(M, ̇)O2), beginning at a critical O2 tension (Pcrit) of 46 Torr, to only 14% of normoxic rates at 10 Torr. Total ventilatio...

Total ventilation (over(V, ̇)w) increased up to 4-fold, entirely due to a rise in ventilatory stroke volume (no change in ventilatory frequency), and water convection requirement (over(V, ̇)w / over(M, ̇)O2) increased substantially (up to 15-fold).
