Vanikoro flying fox range |
The Vanikoro flying fox (Pteropus tuberculatus) is a species of flying fox in the Pteropodidae family. It is known only from a few specimens from Vanikolo in the Solomon Islands, with the last possibly collected before 1930 . It is probably extinct, as Vanikolo has been extensively logged, and surveys have failed to rediscover this species.[1]
