Ryukyu flying fox (Pteropus dasymallus)


The Ryukyu flying fox utilizes the forest for daytime roosting. It eats the fruits of a variety of plant species. Figs are a favourite. It lives in colonies.

The Ryukyu flying fox occurs in the Ryukyu Archipelago. It previously occurred in Taiwan. It is abundant in the southern and central parts of Okinawa. Populations appear to be large on Ishigaki, Iriomote and Yonayuki. Threats apparently include hunting and deforestation on different islands.
