• Some experts have indicated that both pseudohermaphroditism (also called false hermaphroditism) and true hermaphroditism are outdated, confusing, and potentially pejorative, indicating replacement with "disorders of sex development", "disorders of sexual development", "differences of sex development" (all abbreviated as DSD) or "intersex".
• Environmental stresses sometimes create pollen bearing male flowers on female plants—known as hermaphroditism or 'hermying'.
• Two papers from 2008 have suggested that transitions between hermaphroditism and gonochorism or vice versa have occurred in certain animal taxonomy groups between 10 to 20 times.
• Simultaneous hermaphroditism is a sexual system where an individual can produce both gamete types in the same breeding season.
• Monoecy has also been proposed to be an intermediate state between hermaphroditism and dioecy.

• In families like Compositae or Chenopodiaceae, gynomonoecy is considered leading path to monoecy from hermaphroditism and vice versa.
• Some authors view andromonoecy as a transitional state from hermaphroditism to monoecy. It has been suggested that andromonoecy evolved from hermaphroditism due to the loss of female structures.
• Simultaneous hermaphroditism is one of the two types of hermaphroditism, the other type being sequential hermaphroditism.
• Some molecular and histological evidence suggests the occurrence of hermaphroditism in "Acanthaster" cf. "solaris".
• There is evidence for at least 133 transitions between dioecy and hermaphroditism in the sexual systems of bryophytes.

• Individual "P. lividus" are either male or female although hermaphroditism has been observed.
• Hermaphroditism is polyphyletic in invertebrates where it evolved from gonochorism [...] and gonochorism is also ancestral to hermaphroditic fishes.
