Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bat is mainly frugivorous. It is transient, with aseasonal changes in abundance, and uses mainly large-crop, big-bang fruiting plants. Single fruit are taken from a tree and consumed in nearby day or feeding roost where seeds and dry pellets are discarded. Feeding roosts are located in foliage c.
). Fruits from gardens and orchards are often eaten. Flower products are important during dry season when fruits are scarce, with up to eleven pollen types eaten (e.g.
Mating system of the Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bat is polygynous. Females are polyestrous, with postpartum estrus. Reproduction is largely aseasonal, with pregnant females found throughout the year. Litter size is one, with up to two litters per year.
Activity pattern is bimodal. Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bats are most active 2-4 hours after sunset and again c.3 hours before sunrise, with resting period around midnight.

Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bats mainly move between day roosts and feeding areas,traveling 400-1600 m. Mean home range is 8 ha for adult males and 6 ha for adult females. Home ranges widely overlap among males and females and with individuals of other species of
). Social organization is harem-based, with a single male associated with 2-5 reproductive females and their young. Harem group roosts in a tent built by the male or in unmodified roosts. In Peninsular
) leaves are preferred roosts; ¢.50% of them is modified as tents by chewing mid-rib midway between base and tip. Other roosts include withering roots of epiphytic ferns (
). Roosts are spatially clumped in forests. Males and females have low roost fidelity, and harem system is labile. Males change roosts every 1-7 days, and females change roosts every 3-14 days. Alternative roost sites include cave entrances and limestone solution cavities, where Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bats are more gregarious.
Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Horsfield’s Short-nosed Fruit Bat is abundant and uses modified forests as roosting and feeding habitat. Population trend is unknown.
