"Sex-ratio" condition: unusual mechanisms in bark beetles.

G N Lanier, J H Oliver.   

Abstract

Although males and females occur in similar frequency in the broods of most scolytid beetles, certain individuals of several species produce offspring highly aberrant in the ratio of sexes-all or mostly female. In some instances this condition reflects gynogenesis (parthenogenesis stimulated by mating); in others, a maternally transmitted factor.
