They form a very abundant component of many  intertidal and shallow subtidal ecosystems and, by their grazing,  often play a central role in shaping these communities. They also  display a wide range of life history strategies and many are  polymorphic, making them attractive model organisms for ecologists,  evolutionary biologists and physiologists alike. Areas of particular  interest include ecological interactions with other animals and with  algae, the effects of pollutants and the use of littorinids as  sentinel species for monitoring pollution, the effects of parasites on  growth and ecology, taxonomy, and the study of genotypic\/phenotypic  responses to environmental factors. There is still much to be done,  and the littorinids are proving to be an ideal group on which to work.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e Primarily targeted at the research level.
