Yes actually, seahorses have been known to produce young without males.

Actually yes. I remember back to biopsychology class in college. There exists a species of salamander in which the entire species is made up of females. Strange thing is two female salamanders perform sex simulation with one acting as a male even though all the females produce asexually.

I don't know if two female organisms can, because their DNA would have to combine somehow, but a single female organism can have offspring without a male being involved. It's called parthenogenesis.

In the Whip-tail lizard species, there are only females. And I believe that the Amazon mollies are the same.

This would be asexual reproduction. The organsims would have to be some ferns, or bacteria.
