Detritivores feed on dead plant and animal remains.
Detrivores.
Detritus Detritus. It's what the decomposers feed on/eat.
Organisms that feed on plant and animal remains and other dead matter are known as decomposers. They play a crucial role in breaking down organic material and recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. Examples include bacteria, fungi, worms, and insects like beetles.
detritivores
Omnivores feed on both animals and plants.
Fungus is the organism that feed on dead an decaying matter.Animals that feed on dead remains are called Scavengers eg Crow,Vulture.
Scavengers and bottom feeders survive on dead animal and plant matter, or detritus. Accordingly they are also known as detrivores, playing a critical aspect to the food cycle and circle of life.

Decomposing plant and animal matter, along with other dead material, are collectively called "detritus." Detritus serves as an important source of nutrients for decomposers in an ecosystem.
scavengers are kind of like "nature's vacuum". they feed on the remains of dead animals and the remains that other animals have left behind. Most scavengers are omnivores that will eat any plant/meat remains that contain some nutritional value, ( such as lobsters who feed on anything from small fish to seaweed and plankton)...but many are strictly carnivorous eating only animal remains...(such as the vulture).

scavenging is an example of an eater-eaten relationship because animals who feed on the dead animals may be eaten by other live animals when they are dead....For Example; Vultures feed on dead animals but when the vulture is dead another live animal will feed on it and when that live animal becomes dead another animal will feed on its dead body and so on...
