R. a. infumatus J. E. Gray, 1870 — Sumatra , Java , and W Lesser Sunda Is ( Bali , Nusa Penida, and Lombok; possibly also on Alor).	Head—body 128-154 mm , tail 13-24 mm , ear 16- 5-24 mm , hindfoot 19-21 mm , forearm 70-92 mm ; weight 64-106 g . Males are always larger on average than females. Geoffroy’s Rousette is similar to Leschenault’s Rousette ( R. leschenaultii ), distinguished by subcircular (as opposed to elliptical) occlusal outline of M,, narrower ears, and proportionally more slender and shorter rostrum. Ears are narrow, tips are not attenuated, and antitragus is small and round. Fur coloris similar to that of other species of Rousettus : generally brown and grayish drab on chest, breast, and belly. It has been suggested that darker hue might be useful to distinguish Geoffroy’s Rousette from other eastern species of Rousettus . Head, back, and rump range from dark brown to dark olive or sepia-brown; nape is wood-brown to greenish brown; sides of neck and fore neck are more or less suffused with wood-brown or tawny olive in males and greenish brown in females. Distinct band of dorsal fur, 15-35- 5 mm wide, occurs between both plagiopatagium insertions. Furis rather short and sparse. Neck region is almost naked. Uropatagium and tibia are almost bare. Adults of both sexes can have two bright-colored and bristly hair tufts, one at either side of neck; these tufts occur especially in older specimens and are often absent, without geographical regularity. Wing membranes are dark brown but are nearly translucent over bones giving appearance of white stripes. Claw is present on index finger. Palatal ridges are variable depending on subspecies: 3+4+1,4+3+1,0or4+4 +1 (less commonly). Dental formula for all species of Rousettusis12/2, C1/1,P 3/3, M 2/3 (x2) = 34. Dentition is conservative in tooth number and structure of dental pieces. There is a tendency in Geoffroy’s Rousette for reduction of interspace between C' and P?%P! in some individuals is closely wedged between those two teeth (absent in a few individuals); this characteristic is variable, without correlation to geography. Premolars and molars vary in size but are similar to those of Leschenault’s Rousette. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 36 and FN = 68.	Primary and secondary forests, mixed agricultural land (orchard), and open areas, from sea level up to elevations of ¢. 2200 m . Geoftroy’s Rousette also occurs in residential areas up to elevations of ¢. 500 m .	Geoffroy’s Rousette is frugivorous but also eats nectar. It often feeds on overripe fruits, minimizing their damage in commercial orchards. On Panay Island ( Philippines ), diets included native and exotic fruits from at least 14 genera and eleven families. Ficus was very important on Panay Island, with eleven species included in diets. Flowers from Erythrina ( Fabaceae ) and Barringtonia ( Lecythidaceae ) are used.	On Negros Island ( Philippines ), multiparous Geoffroy’s Rousettes gave birth in March-April and usually August-September, a pattern of seasonal bimodal polyestry. Exact timing of these birth periods probably varies from year to year, but births coincide with beginning of dry season and early wet season. Females were lactating and pregnant when captured in April-May, indicating that most females have young in both birthing periods and postpartum estrus. Females become pregnant in their first year oflife; first births occurred in broad peak from June to late August. Gestation is ¢.150 days, and lactation lasts ¢.60 days. Crown—rump length of neonates is ¢. 47 mm . A similar reproductive pattern was observed in New Guinean populations, with females producing two litters of one young annually. Geoffroy’s Rousettes might have a harem-type of mating system; adult males are less abundant than females.	On Mindanao, Geoffroy’s Rousette roosted in caves with large openings and close to water, and it might use rock crevices and old tombs. It is docile when handled, rarely calling or biting.	Geoffroy’s Rousette roosts in large colonies of2000-100,000 individuals. On the Island of Samal ( Philippines ), the world’s largest colony of Geoffroy’s Rousette was estimated at ¢.883,000 individuals in the first 100 m of a 150 m-long cave (Monfort Cave). It often roosts in association with other fruit bats such as the Lesser Dawn Bat ( Eonycteris spelaea ). A capture-recapture study suggested that individuals have large home ranges. Geoftroy’s Rousettes regularly fly long distances (more than 20 km /night) to forage. Genetic studies based on allozymes showed little genetic differentiation among populations in the Philippines , indicating high dispersal ability.	Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Geoffroy’s Rousette is widespread, with common and abundant populations, and seemingly not declining at a fast rate. Nevertheless,it is heavily hunted in South-east Asia, Borneo, and the Philippines and regarded as a pest in parts ofits distribution.

Taxonomic status ofthe recently described R. tangkokoensis by H. J. Lengkong and colleagues in 2016 from northern Sulawesi , similar to R. amplexicaudatus , needs additional investigation. Three subspecies recognized. Subspecies and Distribution.

R. a. infumatus J. E. Gray, 1870 — Sumatra , Java , and W Lesser Sunda Is ( Bali , Nusa Penida, and Lombok; possibly also on Alor). Descriptive notes. Head—body 128-154 mm , tail 13-24 mm , ear 16- 5-24 mm , hindfoot 19-21 mm , forearm 70-92 mm ; weight 64-106 g . Males are always larger on average than females. Geoffroy’s Rousette is similar to Leschenault’s Rousette ( R. leschenaultii ), distinguished by subcircular (as opposed to elliptical) occlusal outline of M,, narrower ears, and proportionally more slender and shorter rostrum. Ears are narrow, tips are not attenuated, and antitragus is small and round. Fur coloris similar to that of other species of Rousettus : generally brown and grayish drab on chest, breast, and belly. It has been suggested that darker hue might be useful to distinguish Geoffroy’s Rousette from other eastern species of Rousettus . Head, back, and rump range from dark brown to dark olive or sepia-brown; nape is wood-brown to greenish brown; sides of neck and fore neck are more or less suffused with wood-brown or tawny olive in males and greenish brown in females. Distinct band of dorsal fur, 15-35- 5 mm wide, occurs between both plagiopatagium insertions. Furis rather short and sparse. Neck region is almost naked. Uropatagium and tibia are almost bare. Adults of both sexes can have two bright-colored and bristly hair tufts, one at either side of neck; these tufts occur especially in older specimens and are often absent, without geographical regularity. Wing membranes are dark brown but are nearly translucent over bones giving appearance of white stripes. Claw is present on index finger. Palatal ridges are variable depending on subspecies: 3+4+1,4+3+1,0or4+4 +1 (less commonly). Dental formula for all species of Rousettusis12/2, C1/1,P 3/3, M 2/3 (x2) = 34. Dentition is conservative in tooth number and structure of dental pieces. There is a tendency in Geoffroy’s Rousette for reduction of interspace between C' and P?%P! in some individuals is closely wedged between those two teeth (absent in a few individuals); this characteristic is variable, without correlation to geography. Premolars and molars vary in size but are similar to those of Leschenault’s Rousette. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 36 and FN = 68. Habitat. Primary and secondary forests, mixed agricultural land (orchard), and open areas, from sea level up to elevations of ¢. 2200 m . Geoftroy’s Rousette also occurs in residential areas up to elevations of ¢. 500 m . Food and Feeding. Geoffroy’s Rousette is frugivorous but also eats nectar. It often feeds on overripe fruits, minimizing their damage in commercial orchards. On Panay Island ( Philippines ), diets included native and exotic fruits from at least 14 genera and eleven families. Ficus was very important on Panay Island, with eleven species included in diets. Flowers from Erythrina ( Fabaceae ) and Barringtonia ( Lecythidaceae ) are used. Breeding. On Negros Island ( Philippines ), multiparous Geoffroy’s Rousettes gave birth in March-April and usually August-September, a pattern of seasonal bimodal polyestry. Exact timing of these birth periods probably varies from year to year, but births coincide with beginning of dry season and early wet season. Females were lactating and pregnant when captured in April-May, indicating that most females have young in both birthing periods and postpartum estrus. Females become pregnant in their first year oflife; first births occurred in broad peak from June to late August. Gestation is ¢.150 days, and lactation lasts ¢.60 days. Crown—rump length of neonates is ¢. 47 mm . A similar reproductive pattern was observed in New Guinean populations, with females producing two litters of one young annually. Geoffroy’s Rousettes might have a harem-type of mating system; adult males are less abundant than females. Activity patterns. On Mindanao, Geoffroy’s Rousette roosted in caves with large openings and close to water, and it might use rock crevices and old tombs. It is docile when handled, rarely calling or biting. Movements, Home range and Social organization. Geoffroy’s Rousette roosts in large colonies of2000-100,000 individuals. On the Island of Samal ( Philippines ), the world’s largest colony of Geoffroy’s Rousette was estimated at ¢.883,000 individuals in the first 100 m of a 150 m-long cave (Monfort Cave). It often roosts in association with other fruit bats such as the Lesser Dawn Bat ( Eonycteris spelaea ). A capture-recapture study suggested that individuals have large home ranges. Geoftroy’s Rousettes regularly fly long distances (more than 20 km /night) to forage. Genetic studies based on allozymes showed little genetic differentiation among populations in the Philippines , indicating high dispersal ability. Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Geoffroy’s Rousette is widespread, with common and abundant populations, and seemingly not declining at a fast rate. Nevertheless,it is heavily hunted in South-east Asia, Borneo, and the Philippines and regarded as a pest in parts ofits distribution. Bibliography.

Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1810)	This species, as currently defined, probably includes several undescribed, "cryptic" species in the Moluccas (K. Helgen in litt.). On the mainland the separation of the species from R. leschenaultii is sometimes problematic, the two species occur sympatrically.	20000000	Rousettus amplexicaudatus	Least Concern		2019	2019-05-26 00:00:00 UTC	3.1	English	Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, and occurrence in several protected areas. It is not believed to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a threatened category, although in some regions it has undergone significant declines due to hunting, cave disturbances, treasure hunting, and persecution as the species is considered a pest and harms crops.	This is a colonial species which forms colonies ranging in size from tens of individuals to ca. 1.8 million bats (Carpenter et al. 2014). The roosts are in caves, rock crevices, and old tombs and can be found in a wide variety of habitats including secondary forest, agricultural areas, and other disturbed areas like rural gardens, fruit orchards and at the forest edge (Heaney et al.  1991, 1998, Heideman and Heaney 1989, Lepiten 1995, Rickart et al.  1993). It is present, but less common, in primary tropical moist forest. Preliminary evidence from pollination studies suggests this species may play an important role as a pollinator for commercially important durian trees, Parkia speciosa Hassk, and cultivated banana (Musa spp.) (Sritongchuay and Bumrungsri 2016, Bumrungsri et al.  2013). They have been documented traveling up to 50 kilometers each night, in search of appropriate fruit (Whittaker, 1994). Gestation is thought to be about 150 days, and lactation about 60 days (Heideman and Utzurrum 2003). The species may have two litters of a single young annually (Bonaccorso 1998, Heideman and Utzurrum 2003) or just two well-defined clusters per year, one in March/April and the other in August/September (Heideman and Utzurrum 2003). Rousettus are known to use a primitive form of echolocation (tongue clicking) while foraging. Deforestation, which is severe in the Philippines (Jones et al.  2009), limits vegetative cover. This results in patchy distribution of food resources and has the potential to destroy important navigational landmarks (Mickleburgh et al.  2002). Cave disturbances, resulting from activities such as guano mining and visitation by tourists and treasure hunters, renders otherwise suitable caves unsuitable for habitation, limiting an already finite resource for the bats (Mickleburgh et al.  2002, Jones et al.  2009). Climate change has the potential to alter existing vegetative communities (Hughes et al.  2012) and generate more severe weather systems, causing increased bat mortality (Wiles and Brooke 2009). In the Philippines and Indochina, they are subject to intense hunting at some cave roosts (Utzurrum 1992). Finally, predation by invasive predators, like feral cats and dogs, and humans who harvest bats for bushmeat, sport, medicine, and trade place R. amplexicaudatus under even greater levels of strain (Mickleburgh et al.  2002, Wiles and Brooke 2009). In some locations, the disturbances caused by these various threats have been so severe that the species has completely abandoned many of its historic roosts (Carpenter et al.  2014). In some areas people still net around their orchards and the bat will get caught and die in the nets. Rousettus amplexicaudatus are one of the most common bats found in these nets (P. Soisook pers. comm).	It is predicted by experts that the population is declining due to habitat destruction, deforestation (fragmentation, forest conversion to urban areas and plantation agriculture), karst and cave disturbances (tourism), mining, treasure hunting, bat hunting, introduction of invasive predators, and overharvesting by humans throughout its range (Heaney et al. 1991, 1998; Heideman and Heaney 1989; Lepiten 1995; Rickart et al. 1993; Mickleburgh et al. 2002; Wiles and Brooke 2009; Furey et al. 2016). Further, it is regarded as a pest in some parts of its range and in some areas, people still net around their orchards, leaving the bats to die in the nets. Rousettus amplexicaudatus are one of the most common bats found in these nets (S. Bumrungsri Pers. comm. 2019).	The global population of Rousettus amplexicaudatus is thought to be declining due to extensive disturbance in its roosts from hunting, mining and other threats (see below). However, this is a widespread species that is commonly encountered. It is a common species with an extensive geographic range. This is a locally abundant species in Southeast Asia and the Philippines (Utzurrum 1992). The Monfort Bat Cave, on Samal Island in the southern Philippines has an estimated 1.8 million individuals (Carpenter et al. 2014) and is formally recognized as the worldâ€™s largest colony for the species. Many colonies throughout its range are subject to intense hunting (Utzurrum 1992, Scheffers et al. 2012), and anthropogenic pressures at cave roosts have resulted in the abandonment of many historically occupied sites (Carpenter et al. 2014). Despite the broad distribution of R. amplexicaudatus and the perception that it is quite common, this species is subject to many threats throughout its range (Delpopolo et al. 2014). Scientists are concerned that the presence of multiple large roosts masks, or may cause biologists to overlook, critical signs of stress, such as regular roost abandonment (Delpopolo et al. 2014). Within some countries, biologists believe that the species is in decline due to habitat destruction (deforestation, karst and cave disturbance) and hunting (Indonesia, S. Wiantoro pers. comm., Malaysia, S. Abdul Aziz, pers. comm., and the Philippines, N. Ingle, pers. comm.)	Unknown	This species is known from Yunnan in China (Smith et al. 2008) extending to Cambodia, Thailand, Myanmar, Viet Nam (Borissenko and Kruskop 2003), Lao PDR (Duckworth et al. 1999), and Peninsular Malaysia through Indonesia (including Borneo-Kalimantan, Natuna Is., Sumatra, Sulawesi, Papua, Java, Bali, and small islands in Lesser Sunda and Moluccas. It is widespread throughout much of New Guinea (Indonesia and Papua New Guinea), the Bismarck Archipelago and adjacent islands. It is present on many of the Molucca Islands, including the islands of Halmahera, Morotai, Buru, Seram, Langkawi archipelago, Malaysia, and the Philippines. It has been recorded from the island of Bougainville and Buka (S. Hamilton pers. comm.) and many of the Solomon Islands as far south as the island of San Cristobal.	There is trading of this species within countries but no known international commercial trading of it.	Terrestrial	Rousettus amplexicaudatus is found in many types of sites with some levels of protection, like the private protected cave of the Monfort Bat Cave, Philippines, National Parks, Protected Areas, Forest Reserves, and Key Biodiversity Areas. However, conservation of the species remains challenging given its extensive range, diverse habitats, and perceptions of local communities. Further, conservation efforts for the species are difficult because many perceive that this is a common species with few threats due to the massive numbers that are readily seen when the species is in a roost (Carpenter et al. 2014). Identification, protection, and regular monitoring of important roost sites would benefit the conservation of this species across its range. The united protection of local and regional cave roosts for the species also will help to ensure the sustainability of regional populations. In the Philippines, caves are protected under the Cave Management Act, although this is not fully enforced. In much of Southeast Asia the species requires protection from hunting. The more people know about the natural history of ;R. amplexicaudatus , the more effectively populations can be monitored, managed, and protected (Delpopolo et al. 2014). Conservation campaigns will increase the awareness of people about this species conservation, and afterwards it is hoped that cave disturbance and hunting activities can be minimized. Research and education are needed about the species actual impact on orchards and how helpful and crucial they really are to economically and ecologically important species and crops (C. Francis pers. comm. 2006). Further, research is needed to understand hunting pressures and to establish, where appropriate, harvest guidelines.
