Sound is a widely available cue in aquatic environments and is used by many marine
animals for vital behaviors. Most research has focused on marine vertebrates.
Relatively little is known about sound detection in marine invertebrates despite their
abundance and importance in marine environments. Cephalopods are a key taxon in
many ecosystems but their behavioral interactions relative to acoustic stimuli have
seldom been studied. Here we review current knowledge regarding (i) frequency
ranges and sound levels that generate behavioral responses, (ii) the types of
behavioral responses and their biological relevance.
