Concentrations lower than those present in the litter leaves&lt;br/&gt;were toxic to these insects. Detoxification by washing with rainwater&lt;br/&gt;and biodegradation of tannic compounds are necessary for litter&lt;br/&gt;decomposition, in which microarthropods participated, to occur.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Citation</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Citation</style></research-notes></record></records></xml>
