Black-bellied fruit bat

The black-bellied fruit bat (Melonycteris melanops) is a species of bat in the family Pteropodidae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea. During daytime, this tiny flying fox roosts usually among dry banana leaves, a perfect camouflage given its orange, brown, black and white belly fur pattern. Males are resource defenders; in gardens they try to monopolize banana flowers within a territory.
