It is endemic to the Bismarck Archipelago including the Admiralty Islands in Papua New Guinea. Taxonomy and etymologyIt was described as a new species in 1914 by British zoologist Oldfield Thomas. The holotype used to described the species had been collected by Albert Stewart Meek and his brother-in-law, Albert Frederic Eichhorn, in October 1913. The eponym for the species name "anderseni" is Danish mammalogist Knud Andersen. Of Andersen, Thomas wrote: "I have named the species in honour of Dr. K. Andersen, in recognition of the striking monograph of Dobsonia contained in his Catalogue, a monograph which has entirely revolutionized our knowledge of the group."[2] DescriptionIts forearm length is {{convert|123-125|mm|in|abbr=on}}. Its fur is very dark brown, with its head nearly black.[2] Range and habitatIts range includes several islands of Papua New Guinea. It has been documented at elevations up to {{convert|1500|m|ft|abbr=on}} above sea level.[1] ConservationAs of 2008, it is listed as a least-concern species by the IUCN. It meets the criteria for this classification because it has a wide geographic range; its population is presumably large; it tolerates a degree of habitat disturbance; and its population trend appears to be stable or increasing. Threats to this species include overharvesting for bushmeat or disturbance of the caves where it roosts during the day.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite journal | last1=Helgen| first1= K.| last2= Allison| first2= A.| last3= Bonaccorso| first3= F.| last4= Hamilton| first4= S.| year= 2008| title= Dobsonia anderseni| journal= The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species| volume= 2008| page= e.T136374A4282621| doi= 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2008.RLTS.T136374A4282621.en}} {{Pteropodidae|H.}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q137635}}2. ^1 {{cite journal| last=Thomas| first= O.| year=1914| title= XLIX.—On mammals from Manus Island Admiralty group, and Ruk Island, Bismarck Archipelago| journal= Journal of Natural History| series=8| volume= 13| issue=76| pages= 435–436| url=https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/51229954}} 5 : Dobsonia|Mammals of Papua New Guinea|Mammals described in 1914|Bats of Oceania|Taxa named by Oldfield Thomas |
