Abstract
Macroinvertebrates are crucial for nutrient cycling in streams. Surrounding trees have different nutritional value. We predicted that leaves with higher nitrogen content would attract more invertebrates. The macroinvertebrates in this experiment did not support a pattern of which bag of litter they preferred between oak leaves, ash leaves, and plastic.
