Moluccan flying fox these species have been listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN. Moluccan flying fox The Moluccan flying fox ("Pteropus chrysoproctus"), also known as the Ambon flying fox, is a species of megabat in the genus "Pteropus". It is found in the low-lying forests (less than 250 m above sea level) of Seram Island (including Manusela National Park), Buru, Ambon and the nearby Maluku Islands of eastern Indonesia. Another "Pteropus" species, "P. argentatus", was until recently considered to be the same species as "P. chrysoproctus". The habitat has an area of less than 20,000 km² and is decreasing due to logging. For
Australian flying fox die-offs flying fox ("Pteropus poliocephalus") and the black flying fox ("P. alecto"). Where mixed-species colonies are affected the black flying fox suffers substantially higher mortality than the grey-headed flying fox. However, summer temperatures are more extreme within the range of the grey-headed flying fox than within the range of the black flying-fox, and therefore the actual total number of casualties is much higher among grey-headed flying foxes than black flying foxes. Mortality is especially high among dependent young and lactating females, but any demographic category can be affected. Observations in flying fox colonies during extreme heat events have revealed that flying
