Comment:
Status: CITES - Appendix II. IUCN/SSC Action Plan (1992) - Rare as P. speciosus, No Data: Limited Distribution as P. mearnsi. IUCN 2003 - Vulnerable as P. speciosus, Data Deficient as P. mearnsi
Comment:
Comments: subniger species group. Included in griseus by Corbet and Hill (1992), but I follow Flannery (1995b) and Heaney et al. (1998) in treating it as distinct pending further study. Some Philippine records were erroneously based on subadult hypomelanus; see Heaney et al. (1998). Includes mearnsi; see Heaney et al. (1987) and Flannery (1995b), but also see Corbet and Hill (1992), who suggested that mearnsi may be a synonym of hypomelanus
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
