Descriptive adequacy is a quality measure for the evaluation of linguistic theories. A theory attains a higher level of descriptive adequacy if it can handle more natural language data from more languages.
The assessment of a theory's descriptive adequacy obviously is closely related to what counts as 'good' natural language data, and hence to the concepts of grammaticality and well-formedness.
