He or she, is a Barred Hamlet.
Hamlets have both male and female sexual organs at the same time as an adult.
They seem quite at ease mating in front of divers, allowing observations in the wild to occur readily.
They do not practice self-fertilization, but when they find a mate, the pair takes turns. One acting as the male and the other acting as the female.... then switching roles, through multiple matings, usually over the course of several nights.
