As far as I know there is no such thing as saprophytic digestion, however a saprophyte is any organism that live on dead matter. I know however that saprophytic fungi digest their food extracellularly, meaning the food is broken down in compartments that are continuous with the outside of the specie's body (i.e Gastrovascular cavity found in many animals with relatively simple body plans.)

Examples of organisms that carry out extracellular digestion?
Fungi, such as mushrooms, carry out extracellular digestion. They secrete enzymes outside their bodies onto their food source, breaking it down into simpler compounds that can be absorbed.
