J: "The w'Landt have three genders; female, male and female/male."

I: "Wouldn't hermaphrodite be the proper term."

J: "The females and female/males live in separate colonies. Both are capable of parthenogenesis but only the females reproduce that way, that why they have separate colonies, the females want nothing to do with the female/males."

I: "Did they evolve into separate species?"

J: "Not by my time but in the future, who knows. Anyway, they are monogenic in a way; the females only have females and the female/males only have female/males.

I: "Explains how they could maintain separate colonies."

J: "With any species that reproduces by parthenogenesis every couple of generations some males are born."
