👉 Ecotonal is a term used in environmental science and biology to describe living organisms that are able to coexist with their natural habitats, without causing harm or disruption to these environments. It refers to a type of biotic system where species live within the same habitat but can interbreed, which allows for genetic diversity within a population. Ecotones are often used in discussions of conservation biology and biodiversity management to highlight the importance of preserving ecosystems and their ecological balance.
