Abstract
The critical orbits, corresponding to bifurcations of the generating family and its branches, are considered more closely and the part off is investigated that has branches of very high order only. Three families of periodic solutions of the elliptic problem are also determined in an effort to follow the evolution of the stability region aroundf when the eccentricity of the primaries is increased to non-zero values.
