The role of shredders in detrital dynamics of permanent and temporary streams. Kirby, J. M. Pages 425-435 in T, 1983. Paper abstract bibtex Leaf-shredding insects may have an important role in breakdown of leaf detritus and the production of particulate organic matter (POM) in streams. This role was evaluated by comparing detrital dynamics in three permanent and three temporary tributaries of Guys Run, Rockbridge County, Virginia. In general, the streams with fastest leaf breakdown, highest low-flow POM concentrations, and largest average POM particle sizes were found to have the greatest shredder and total insect densities. It was concluded that this is further evidence for the importance of shredders in woodland streams.
