Some graze, some browse, some feed on plankton, some are scavengers or detritivores, some are active carnivores. Derivatives detritivorous /ˌdɛtrɪˈtɪv(ə)rəs/ adjective ... While most species of Daphnia, including D. pulex, are herbivorous or detritivorous (feeding on phytoplankton), a few are carnivorous and prey on other water fleas. They included both carnivorous and detritivorous types. However, even if the glossopterids did not possess toxic secondary metabolites that discouraged detritivores, their dominance still may have played a role in the abundance of detritivorous oribatid mites. Origin 1960s: from detritus + -vore 'eating' (see -vorous).
