1. the ability of an organism to move about or disperse
Usage: biology; ecology

Examples

• The vagility of birds allows them to colonize new habitats quickly.
• Marine larvae with high vagility can spread across ocean basins.
• Plant seeds with low vagility tend to establish populations near the parent plant.
• The researcher studied the vagility of different insect species.
• Wind-dispersed spores demonstrate remarkable vagility compared to heavy seeds.
• The vagility of invasive species often contributes to their ecological success.
