“It has frequently been hypothesized that the nutrition of saprophagous species is based on microorganisms colonizing litter and soil materials rather than on dead organic matter itself ( Cummins 1974; Kurihara and Kikkawa 1986; Werner and Dindal 1987; Doube and Brown 1998; but see Scheu and Schaefer 1998).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
