This species of the pteropus family is only known from three records, all of which came from Okinawa Island, Japan, in the 19th century. There are two specimens in the British Natural History Museum, and the whereabouts of the third one is unknown. Two of the specimens are believed to have come from Southeast Asia, so the true distribution of the Okinawa Flying Fox is unknown.
