this green honeycreeper exhibits a genetic mutation known as bilateral gynandromorphism, where one half of the body is male and one half is female. the bird was spotted in the wild in columbia; researchers suspect the bird is not able to reproduce, but appears to be in good health. they are the second known example of a bilateral gynandromorph green honeycreeper; the last was recorded over 100 years ago.

Bilateral Gynandromorph
Organisms that have a mix of male and female characteristics on each side of their body. They occur in certain insects, birds, and crustaceans due to a genetic anomaly during early development. In perfect bilateral gynandromorphism, the creature's body is divided in a line down the center. One side is male and the other side is female. However, such conditions are exceedingly rare.

Bowie the lobster is half-blue, half-red, and all kinds of rare
Contrary to what a certain casual dining chain might suggest, lobsters come in many colors. There are blue lobsters, orange lobsters, and even calico lobsters. But Bowie, named after pop icon David Bowie, is a rock star lobster. Bowie is half-red, half-blue; half-male, half-female; and all kinds of rare. A bicolored lobster is a 1 in 50 million occurrence, according to New England Aquarium biologist Jordan Baker. The split-color crustacean's blue side is, in adherence to gender reveal party norms, male, while the red is female. Bowie was caught by a lobster fisherman off the coast of Maine and has since clawed its way to internet stardom. Jacob Knowles' friend brought him the rare catch, which Knowles has shown off in a series of videos...

Here we go! This was more difficult than I thought it would be and I’m not sure if I’m quite happy with all of them but I think these are good enough for now lol.

Might as well drop the coolest thing I've ever found, and maybe that I'll ever find - all downhill from here! This is a bilateral gynandromorph Amazon Ant (polyergus longicornis). They're half alate (male), half worker (female).
An ant which likely prefers they/them pronouns? Respect. 😂
They currently reside in the collection of the University of Texas, curated by Alex Wild. Preserved for the ridiculously cool thing they are. ❤️

When @pangur-and-grim announced wanting to make insect pins as if they filled a pin board (like over a year ago), I couldn’t help myself. I haven’t gotten every insect pin of theirs but I proudly display the ones I have (and some select favorites!) at work.

this rose-breasted grosbeak was banded by powdermill bird banding during the fall of 2005, during a random wild bird banding of the area. participants were surprised to find the bird to be a bilateral gyandromorph - one side of the body is male, the other female. this is typically due to an event that happens in early mitosis, where one of the dividing cells does not split its sex chromosomes in a typical fashion. interestingly, most birds only have one functional ovary on the left side of the body, so this individual could still hypothetically produce offspring.
