Trophic transfer of microplastics from soil via earthworms (Eisenia fetida) to ground beetles (Poecilus cupreus)

Tabular data includes information on the microplastics ingested and excreted by the beetles, as well as microplastics ingested by the earthworm, in relation to the microplastic load of the soil. The data set contains information on the experiments and on the number, shape, size and type of microplastics.
