Parthenogenesis, as it was so called.

The specifics of their reproductive systems vary considerably within the group, including three forms hermaphroditism and at least seven forms of parthenogenesis.

An extreme of sexual conflict is seen in Wasmannia auropunctata , where the queens produce diploid daughters by thelytokous parthenogenesis and males produce clones by a process whereby a diploid egg loses its maternal contribution to produce haploid males who are clones of the father.
