Pteropus alecto: Comments
Comment:
Status: CITES - Appendix II. IUCN/SSC Action Plan (1992) - Not Threatened. IUCN 2003 - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: alecto species group. Includes gouldi; see Tate (1942b); also see Bergmans and Rozendaal (1988). The synonymy of nicobaricus with alecto is uncertain (Corbet and Hill, 1992). See Webb and Tideman (1995) for discussion of cases of hybridization with poliocephalus and possible hybridization with conspicillatus. Also see Flannery (1995a, b)
Comment:
CITES: Appendix II under Pteropus, per 2013 Checklist of CITES species: Index of CITES species published with amendments to the Appendices and changes in standard scientific nomenclature following the 16th meeting of the Conference of the Parties (Bangkok, 2013). For current status see CITES.org
