This project was made to record the things that feed on decaying biomass-- that is, anything that once was alive and is no longer-- and to record dead organisms themselves. I hope that this project becomes something useful, as dead logs, carrion, and the like really do provide food and shelter for many diverse organisms. Because this project covers such a broad range of niche interests, everyone's contributions will be helpful.
This project was made to record dead organisms and organisms that directly benefit from them. Here are some examples:
Mushrooms
Skeletons
Roadkill, carrion, and the like
Birds, mammals, insects that feed on carrion
Moss/lichen growing on dead logs
Earthworms, nematodes, and other invertabrates that assist with the decomposing process
