Keystone Corophium : master of the mudflats / [written and produced by J.A. Percy].: En13-8/13-1999E-PDF
"Over the last two decades we have learned enough about Corophium volutator to affirm that it is indeed a "keystone species" on the mudflats of the upper Bay of Fundy. We have had some intriguing glimpses into many of the subtle ecological balances that exist between Corophium and its predators, its food and its glutinous habitat. It is this growing awareness of just how delicately balanced some of these relationships are that makes scientists increasingly fearful of the possible longterm consequences of human activities and developments to the Bay and its wildlife"--p. 10.
