The Pelew flying fox (Pteropus pelewensis) is a species of megabat from the genus Pteropus found in the Palau Islands.
A subspecies found on Yap, the Yap flying fox, is considered as a separate species by some authorities.
[3] The species is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN due to commercial and small-scale hunting.
Commercial hunting for the species was banned in 1994, but local exploitation is common.
