Acoustically evoked potentials in two cephalopods inferred using the auditory brainstem response (ABR) approach [PDF]
It is still a matter of debate whether cephalopods can detect sound frequencies above 400 Hz. So far there is no proof for the detection of underwater sound above 400 Hz via a physiological approach.
