Acerodon (meaning: sharp-tooth) is a genus of bats in the family Pteropodidae containing five species, all native to forests in Southeast Asia, and all considered threatened. They are closely related to Pteropus. These bats are considered herbivores (frugivore) and feed on leaves and fruits. They can usually be found in a tropical forest or in a swamp like wetland.[1][2]
