[Taxacom] 2nd attempt to post something

[Robert Louis Zuparko]

Last week I attempted to post the following, but for some reason it never
went through. I'd like to try again:

Is there a term or short phrase to describe the taxonomic situation where a
species (that presumably has both females and males) is known only from a
single sex? The best I can come up with is: "a species known only from a
single sex", which, at 8 words, seems too long and cumbersome. Is there
anything shorter available?

Thanks,
