Seasonal food limitation of detritivorous insects in a montane stream
Many species of stream invertebrates gain most of their energy by the consumption of coarse detrital materials. While most of these organisms are univoltine or semivoltine, the biomass of assimilable detritus varies seasonally as a result of several processes. The period of detritus input is high...
