Pteropus chrysoproctus Temminck 1837 View in CoL , Monogr. Mamm., Vol. 2: 67.

Type Locality: Indonesia, Maluku, Ambon.

Vernacular Names: Moluccan Flying Fox.

Synonyms: Pteropus argentatus Gray 1843 ; Pteropus argentatus Gray 1844 .

Distribution: Ambon, Buru, Seram, and small islands east of Seram ( Indonesia). A Sangihe Isl record is erroneous; see Bergmans and Rozendaal (1988).

Conservation: CITES – Appendix II. IUCN / SSC Action Plan (1992) – No Data. IUCN 2003 – Lower Risk (nt).

Discussion: chrysoproctus species group. See Flannery (1995 b). Apparently includes argentatus , a taxon based on a badly damaged immature specimen thought to be from Ambon (K. Helgen, pers. comm.). Sulawesi specimens previously referred to argentatus were allocated to Acerodon celebensis by Musser et al. (1982 a). This complex includes several undescribed species (K. Helgen, pers. comm.).
