Rickart's dyak fruit bat

Mammals

Rickart's dyak fruit bat (Dyacopterus rickarti) is a megabat of the family Pteropodidae found on the islands of Luzon and Mindanao in the Philippines. It is one of three species in the genus Dyacopterus, together with the dayak fruit bat (Dyacopterus spadiceus) and Brooks's dyak fruit bat (Dyacopterus brooksi). The Wikipedia list of pteropodids places it in the subfamily Cynopterinae, gives its IUCN status as endangered, describes its population as declining and names forest and caves as its habitat. Its own article is a single sentence, so little else is recorded about its biology.
