説明

A new sampling method was presented for studying a microphagotroph community in a lentic litter layer. In this method, plastic vessels containing litter disks of a plant species were placed on the pond bottom and were sampled periodically (a litter-vessel method). The densities of dominant taxa per litter surface area in the vessels were compared with those in adjacent natural litter scooped directly from underwater by using other plastic vessels (a scooping method). The litter-vessel method minimized any sampling error caused by leaf-litter heterogeneity and, during the sampling process, caused by turbulence of aufwuchs on the leaf litter surface. Therefore this method was more suitable than the scooping method to quantitatively study temporal changes in the community, and it seems applicable to study the specific characteristics of spatial distribution and dispersal ability within a habitat.
