Axis kuhlii Temminck 1836 View in CoL , in: von Siebold, Temminck, and Schlegel, Fauna Japonica, Coup d'Oeil Faune Iles Sonde Emp. Japan: viii, ix.

Type Locality: Indonesia, "les îles Bavian" (= Bawean Isl).

Vernacular Names: Bawean Deer.

Distribution: Indonesia, Bawean Isl. Specimen in Institute of Zoology, Beijing, labelled from Bangka Isl, off Sumatra, Indonesia.

Conservation: CITES – Appendix I; U.S. ESA – Endangered as A. porcinus kuhli [sic]; IUCN – Endangered.

Discussion: The name of this deer is widely attributed to Müller, 1840 in Temminck, Verh. Nat. Gesch. Nederland. Overz. Bezitt., Zool., Zoogd. Indisch. Archipel., p. 45, but Corbet and Hill (1992) indicated the earlier publication. This species was further described by Müller and Schlegel, in Temminck, Verh. Nat. Gesch. Nederland. Overz. Bezitt., Zool., Mammalia, p. 223[1845], pl. 44[1842]. Included in A. porcinus by Haltenorth (1963), but treated as a full species by Groves and Grubb (1987) and Geist (1998).
