Its global population is estimated to be between 2,000 and 2,500 mature individuals and there is an observed continuing decline in the number of mature individuals and no subpopulation contains more than 250 mature individuals.	The species has been found in or adjacent to forest (sea level to 1,300 m), in both primary and secondary forest (Vinciguerra and Muller 1993). Previously it was thought to be confined to high-quality forest, but additional observations have shown it to be somewhat tolerant to a wider range of habitats than previously suspected, having been recorded from degraded habitats on Negros, and persisting in very degraded habitats on Cebu. During recent collections, the species has tended to be found near bodies of water.	Deforestation is a major threat to the Philippine tube-nosed fruit bat. Extensive deforestation has occurred across much of the range of the species, although ;rates have slowed as there is little remaining primary forest. Most of the lowland forest habitat, which is the most suitable for the species, has been destroyed on two out of the three islands on which the species is known to occur. Although it has recently been recorded from some areas of secondary forest, the remaining populations are under intense pressure since very little forest remains and there is a continuing decline in area and quality of this forest. Hunting is not suspected to be a threat as, according to surveys, local people are unfamiliar with this tube-nosed fruit bat.	In general, the Philippine Tube-nosed Fruit Bat has been infrequently collected (mist-netted) on Cebu and Negros, but recent work has shown it to be more widespread on Negros and Cebu than previously suspected. On Negros, where it had been known only from a population on the southern part of the island, surveys have located 30 individuals at eight sites between 1998 and 2004 (Carino 2004). During a survey, the highest number of individuals of ;N. rabori ;was recorded in Ban-ban, Ayungon municipality, with a total capture of nine individuals during 26 Mar to 10 Apr 1999 (CariÃ±o 2004). From June 2014 to November 2015, 74 individuals (36 males, 38 females) were captured at 8 out of 11 study sites, including: Canbantug, Cansuje, Mag-alambak, Nug-as forest, Mt. Lanaya, Basak, Tabunan Forest, and Mt. Kapayas (Alburo 2017). There were 51 adults and 23 were sub-adults or juveniles; none of the adult females were not pregnant nor were they carrying young (Alburo 2017). While population data are limited, it is estimated that there are fewer than 1,000 individuals on Mount Siburan (Sibuyan Island) and that Cebu has fewer than 500 individuals. Negros, where more forests remain, is estimated to only have a couple of thousand individuals total. Conservatively, the number of mature individuals is estimated to be between 2,000 and 2,500 bats with no subpopulation having more than 250 mature individuals. The species population is presumed to be declining from continued habitat loss and degradation.	Decreasing	The Philippine Tube-nosed Fruit Bat is endemic to the Philippines, where it is restricted to the islands of Cebu (Vinciguerra and Muller 1993), Negros and Sibuyan; it might also occur in Panay, although there has been a lack of sampling there to confirm this (L. Heaney pers. comm. 2006). The species may have been recorded from Karakelong in the Talaud Islands (Indonesia), and on Siao and Greater Sangihe in the Sangihe Islands (Indonesia) (K. Helgen pers. comm.), but these records represent tentative identifications.  The elevational range is from sea level to 1,300 m asl. ;On Negros Island, ;Nyctimene rabori ;is known to occur in the North Negros Forest Reserve (Tamblyn ;et al. ; 2005), ;<span lang="EN-PH">in Balinsasayao Twin Lakes Natural Park and Banban, Ayungon Forests (CariÃ±o 2004), and the Mount Kanlaon Natural Park (Deligero et al. 2016). It is also known from several Important Bird Areas on Cebu (Alburo 2017).		Terrestrial	The species is known to occur in protected areas. On Negros Island, ;Nyctimene rabori is known to occur in the North Negros Forest Reserve (Tamblyn et al. ;2005), ;in Balinsasayao Twin Lakes Natural Park and Banban, Ayungon Forests (CariÃ±o 2004), and the Mount Kanlaon Natural Park (Deligero et al. 2016). It is also known from several Important Bird Areas on Cebu (Alburo 2017). ;More adequate conservation measures are needed at known sites. Surveys are needed over much of the potential range of ;N. rabori ;to determine the population status of the species and to determine whether it occurs on Panay Island. Confirmation of the species presence in Indonesia is also an important priority.	Indomalayan		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N. B., & Cirranello, A. L. (2023).
