LIII.—A new race of barking deer from Annam

Summary

Syntypical specimens of Decapod Crustacea described by William Stimpson and James Dana have recently been found in the collections of the British Museum (Nat. Hist.). This material is of considerable interest since much of Stimpson's collection was destroyed in the Great Fire of Chicago in 1871. The species are listed under their original combination according to the classification of Balss (1957).     

LVI.—A new deer of the Brocket group from Venezuela

Summary

A method for culture of Ephippiger cruciger is given which enables the insect to be available more or less continuously in spite of the fact that in the wild it is a biennial species. Procedures for hastening the embryonic and diapause developments, conversely for holding eggs in storage for long periods, are given. A brief survey of published work, on this insect, together with consideration of some potential uses, is included.
