Interestingly, if chance has had it that this has occurred with this 'female' species, that means that there also is statistical probability existing for a case of all-male or formerly all-male species reproducing somehow by a similar method.

i remember reading a David Brin book now about something like this but i can't remember the name, where males and females had altered their mating seasons so that females are in 'heat' at a time when males have low libido and vice versa. Brin said he had taken this idea from a study observation of insects that had this evolved trait so as to avoid conflicts within the two sexes (went on about saving much needed energy etc etc BS). But it was an interesting observation of the insect world transmorgified into an alternate fiction about humans... hmm, maybe fodder for a new Star Trek movie perhaps? oh, too late, Shatner's crew have done the Amazonia planet thing already...

I've been to bars completely full of male clones.
