Photographing Nautilus and other organism gathering around bait, and analysis of species composition and their searching and feeding behavior were carried out in the Habitat of Nautilus off the Southeast Coast of Koror, Palau. Nautilus appeared on almost every occasion and showed active feeding behavior. Nine species of Crustacea, two of Echinodermata and six of Pisces also appeared, and showed active food search and feeding behavior.
... The remote photography done by Saunders (1984) and Hattori et al. (1985), and several other lines of evidence, show Nautilus, like many other species living well below the photic zone, to be an opportunistic scavenger, foraging widely over the bottom and using its acute sense of chemoreception to help locate windfall food items. Its camerate shell provides energysaving buoyancy, and because the camerae need not be pressurized to withstand changes in ambient pressure, its buoyancy device promotes vertical mobility in a way no teleost swim bladder can achieve. ...
