A saprotroph is a ground-dwelling invertebrate that eats decaying organic matter. Fungi and some soil-dwelling bacteria are examples of saprotrophs.
Detritus
The difference is that is that detritivore feeds on large parts of decaying plant, animal matter, and on waste material. A decomposer consumes and breaks down dead organisms or waste matter into simple substances. They both get nutrition from dead organic matter. The difference is that detritivores actually eat the organic matter (like earthworms eating their way through the soil) and decomposers secrete enzymes to digest the organic matter and then absorb the resulting molecules (like bacteria or fungi do).
photosynthesisno, they eat algae, and other organic mattersAnswerThey are actually capable of photosynthesis and consuming algae and other organic matter.
It's generated by decaying organic matter in the swamp.

A decomposer breaks down organic compounds in dead organic matter, and a detritivore eats dead and decaying matter.
Detritus
Well, there are fungi (mushrooms, toadstools, ext...) and vultures, hyenas.
Decaying organic matter in the soil is called humus. When it is added to the soil deliberately, it is called compost.

Worms eat decaying organic matter.
formed from the decaying organic matter in swamps
