The Manado fruit bat (Boneia bidens) is a megabat of the family Pteropodidae and the only member of the genus Boneia. It is endemic to Sulawesi in Indonesia, including North Sulawesi Province. It was formerly classified in the genus Rousettus, but phylogenetic evidence supports the two being distinct and belonging to different subfamilies, Rousettus in Rousettinae and Boneia in Harpyionycterinae. The Wikipedia list of pteropodids gives its IUCN status as vulnerable, names forest and caves as its habitat and describes its population as declining.
