Amphitokous

/ˌæmfɪˈtoʊkəs/ adjective

Definition

Describing organisms that reproduce or give birth in multiple ways or at multiple times throughout their lifecycle.

Etymology

From Greek 'amphi-' (multiple/varied) and 'tokos' (birth), describing varied reproductive patterns.

Kelly Says

Some crustaceans are amphitokous, producing offspring multiple times per season in response to food availability—it's a flexible strategy that lets them maximize reproduction when conditions are favorable.
