An organism that can survive and thrive across a wide range of temperatures.
From Greek 'eury-' meaning 'wide' and 'therm' from 'therme' meaning 'heat'. Coined in biology to describe temperature tolerance in organisms.
Tardigrades (water bears) are extreme eurytheers—they can survive from near absolute zero to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, making them the ultimate survivors in Earth's most extreme environments!
