The black-bearded flying fox (Pteropus melanopogon) is an endangered species of megabat in the Pteropus genus.[1] It is endemic to Indonesia, found on the islands of Ambon, Buru, Seram, Banda, and Yamdena.[2] Currently considered monotypic, it formerly included the Aru flying fox and Kei flying fox as subspecies.[2] No weight data are available for the black-bearded flying fox, but it is a massive species and it may be the heaviest megabat.[3]
