Deers has been used that way.

From A Popular History of Mammalia, 1850:

The subgenus Muntjacus is distinguished from the other deers by the horns being supported on elongated pedicels ...

I would say that either deers or deer would be acceptable for this type of usage. However, if you want to be indisputably correct, you could use species of deer.
