This morphologically cryptic species is largely solitary. It can be found in primary and secondary tropical moist forest, rural gardens, and swamps. Roosts occur in vegetation. Females give birth to single young.	There appear to be no major threats to this species that could cause widespread or imminent decline, mainly because of the speciesâ€™ small size, solitary roosting behaviour and broad distribution.	It can be relatively common and population size is assumed to be large and stable.	Unknown	Until recently, the assumed distribution of both Paranyctimene raptor and P. tenax  was considered to span the island of New Guinea, plus the islands of Salawati and Waigeo. Unpublished genetic results (K.N. Armstrong unpublished data) support information in Helgen (2007) that: â€œParanyctimene tenax may be widely distributed in the northern lowlands of New Guinea and P. raptor in the south (N. Irwin pers. comm.).â€ The type locality is near Wau in Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea, which is also consistent with a northern distribution of P. tenax in New Guinea. It ranges from sea level to 1,350 m asl.	The species is not known to hunted, used, or traded.	Terrestrial	It is presumed to be present in most protected areas throughout its range. Broadscale protection of forests will help maintain population size in this species.	Australasian		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N. B., & Cirranello, A. L. (2023).
