Pteropus brunneus: Comments
Comment:
Status: CITES - Appendix II. IUCN/SSC Action Plan (1992) - Extinct? IUCN 2003 - Extinct
Comment:
Comments: subniger species group. Known only from the holotype. It is not clear that this taxon represents a valid species, see Koopman (1984c)
Comment:
"The 'Dusky Flying Fox' (Pteropus brunneus) lived in Percy Island, Coral Sea. Once said to be abundant, it is known from a single specimen collected in 1859, and the validity of the species has been questioned occasionally. Nothing is known about its biology or causes of extinction" (Wilson and Mittermeier, 2019)
