术语“食碎屑动物”的详细信息

英译术语:

detritivore

汉语语境:

我们的研究结果表明，食碎屑动物本身不喜欢落叶，实际上其主动选择的是其他食物，如丝状绿藻或水生植物，甚至在地面落叶量丰富时仍选择其他食物。因此丹麦森林溪流中的大部分食碎屑动物似乎以生长受限制的食物为生，而他们并不喜欢这些食物。这可能对这些河流的二次生产有重要意义。

英语语境:

We interpret our findings as indicating that detritivore-shredders do not prefer leaf litter, but in fact actively select other food items such as filamentous green algae or macrophytes, even when terrestrial leaf litter is abundant. Most shredders in Danish forest streams thus seem to live on a growth-limiting food resource that they do not prefer. This may have important implications for secondary production in such streams.
