Parthenogenesis in New Zealand Stick Insects
[Read before the 8th N.Z. Science Congress, in Auckland, May 20, 1954; reccived by the Editor, May 24, 1954.]
The phenomenon of parthenogenesis is known to occur in many species of phasmids, but it has not hitherto been recorded among the phasmids of New Zealand.
