In stereochemistry, stereoisomerism, or spatial isomerism, is a form of isomerism in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms, but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space. Wikipedia
Chemical compounds that have same constitution, but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space Wikidata
isomerism due to differences in the spatial arrangement of atoms without any differences in connectivity or bond multiplicity between the isomers Wikidata
Isomeric molecule whose atomic connectivity is the same but whose atomic arrangement in space is different. OmegaWiki
A form of isomerism in which atoms are arranged differently about a chiral centre (or centre of asymmetry). They exhibit optical activity, and in a molecule with a single chiral centre the two isomers (enantiomers) are mirror images of each other whereas in a molecule with multiple chiral centres the isomers (diastereoisomers) are not normally mirror images.

A configurational stereoisomer is a stereoisomer of a reference molecule that has the opposite configuration at a stereocenter (e.g., R- vs S- or E- vs Z-). Open English WordNet
