Detritus
Detritivores, such as earthworms, maggots, and fungi, feed on decaying organic matter like dead plants and animals. These organisms break down the organic material into simpler compounds, releasing nutrients that can be recycled back into the ecosystem.
Ground-dwelling invertebrates that eat decaying organic matter include earthworms, beetles (such as dung beetles), millipedes, and soil mites. These organisms play a crucial role in the decomposition process, breaking down organic matter into smaller pieces and returning nutrients to the soil.
the decaying matter in soil is called humus.
They Live of live or Dead Organic matter
Microscopic plants growing in decaying matter are called saprophytic plants, which obtain their nutrients from dead organic matter through decomposition. Examples include fungi like molds and yeast.
Decaying organic matter in the soil is called humus. When it is added to the soil deliberately, it is called compost.

Such organisms are called decomposers, which include micro fungi and bacteria . They decompose dead and decaying organic matter. An organism that decomposes decaying organisms leaf litter and other types of dead organic matter is called a saprobe, saprotroph ,saprophytic .
