Nusatenggara short-nosed fruit bat

Mammals

The Nusatenggara short-nosed fruit bat (Cynopterus nusatenggara) is a megabat in the family Pteropodidae that is found in Indonesia and Timor-Leste. It is one of the short-nosed fruit bats of the genus Cynopterus, and three subspecies are recognised: the nominate form, Cynopterus nusatenggara sinagai and Cynopterus nusatenggara wetarensis. The Wikipedia list of pteropodids places it in the subfamily Cynopterinae, gives its IUCN status as least concern, names forest as its habitat and describes its population as steady. Its own article is short and records little beyond this range and these subspecies.
