The Role of Macroinvertebrates on Plant Litter Decomposition in Streams. Jonsson, M. & Sponseller, R. A. In Swan, C. M., Boyero, L., & Canhoto, C., editors, The Ecology of Plant Litter Decomposition in Stream Ecosystems, pages 193–216. Springer International Publishing, Cham, 2021. Paper doi abstract bibtex Macroinvertebrate detritivores (i.e., shredders) in freshwaters are often a main driver of decomposition rates of terrestrial plant litter. Yet, the extent to which shredders drive this process depends on the specific functional traits and species present in the shredder community, which in turn are determined by the broader species pool, as well as a range of local environmental conditions, such as pH, substrate characteristics, water chemistry, water temperature, and current velocity. Projected global change will modify several of these environmental conditions, with potential consequences for litter decomposition rates and overall carbon cycling in freshwaters. In this chapter, we describe how a range of freshwater environmental conditions determines the presence of certain species (i.e., functional traits) and the characteristics of shredder communities (i.e., species composition and richness). We then discuss how these characteristics in turn may influence interactions among shredders, and between shredders and other freshwater organisms, to determine their influence on litter decomposition in streams.
