The small Comoro flying fox (Pteropus comorensis) is a flying fox of the family Pteropodidae found in the Comoro Islands, in forest. Michael John Nicoll described it in 1908. The Wikipedia list of pteropodids places it in the subfamily Pteropodinae and gives its size as about 23 centimetres in length with no tail and a forearm of 14 to 16 centimetres. The same list shows its IUCN status as not evaluated and its population trend as unknown. It has no article of its own on the English Wikipedia, so the list is the main source for this entry.
