Phenotypic models of selection are used to determine the effect of facultative parthenogenesis on the production of males in a spatially variable environment when (i) sex determination is under strict genetic control, and (ii) when sex may be environmentally determined. The results show that when sex is under strict genetic control and there is some chance of maturing in isolation, selection favors a female-biased sex ratio. When sex can be environmentally induced by cues which indicate high density, selection favors a mixture of genetic and environmental control, such that half the individuals always become female and the other half become females when isolated and become males when not isolated.
