Examples

“The non-phytophagous minority of the caterpillars exemplifies three somewhat distinct food habits,- entomophagous, homophonous and scavengerous.”

“They eat not only some vegetable material in the form of algae, grasses, and some mosses, but also insects, salamanders, fishes, little molluscs, and bits of dead animal flesh which they find on the bottom. They are therefore partly scavengerous in their habits.”
