Living organisms in soil include life forms such as arthropods; bacteria; fungi; insects such as cicada killers; nematodes; protozoa such as amoebae, ciliates, and flagellates; small animals such as moles and voles; and worms. They also include parts of such plants as algae, grass, herbs, lichen, moss, ornamentals, shrubs, and trees. They all make up what is known as the soil food web of predators and prey.
