- W2078690961 abstract "Summary 1. Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the excretion stoichiometry of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) of two benthic macroinvertebrate grazers, the crayfish Orconectes propinquus and the snail Elimia livescens , that differ in body stoichiometry (mean body molar N : P 18 and 28, respectively). Crayfish excretion had a significantly higher ammonium : soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) ratio in the laboratory and in three natural streams than did snails, as predicted by ecological stoichiometry theory. 2. In greenhouse recirculating artificial streams, treatments consisting of crayfish, snails, or no grazers were used to examine responses in dissolved nutrient concentrations and epilithon nutrient composition and limitation. SRP concentrations depended upon the grazer species, with the snail treatment having a higher SRP concentration than other treatments ( P < 0.05). Dissolved inorganic N was not affected by grazers, but appeared to be rapidly incorporated in epilithon. 3. Epilithon N content was dependent upon the grazer species present, with the crayfish treatment having a significantly higher N content than other treatments ( P = 0.001). No grazer species effects on epilithon P content were found. However, both grazer treatments had significantly lower epilithon P content than the no‐grazer treatment. 4. Traditionally, studies have focused on how grazer‐induced structural changes to epilithon can alter epilithon nutrient dynamics, but this structural mechanism could not solely explain differences in epilithon nutrient contents and ratios in the present study. Our results rather suggest that benthic grazers can alter epilithon nutrient composition and limitation via nutrient excretion. Consequently, macroinvertebrate grazers may serve as ‘nutrient pumps’ that partly regulate the availability of nutrients to algae in stream ecosystems." @default.
