euryoecious

adjective

  1. Able to live in variable habitats or conditions.

    […] be stenoecious for that factor, while those with a large amplitude are designated euryoecious. […] Euryoecious species, by contrast, do not reflect the character of their habitat in regard to the variable for which they have a broad range.

Where it comes from

From Ancient Greek εὐρύς (eurús, “wide”) + Ancient Greek οἰκέω (oikéō, “to dwell”). By surface analysis, eury- + -oecious.

Adapted from the Wiktionary entry euryoecious (CC BY-SA 4.0).
