Abstract
This project was initiated in May 1999 with the aim of determining optimum rearing conditions to breed Lyperobius huttoni in captivity. The programme has been relatively unsuccessful with only a single individual reared in captivity during 2001. However, some highly relevant information has been accumulated over the last three years and is summarised in this report.
