Grey-headed flying fox doesn't seem to be on species list. 10,000 unrecognised animals.

https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/goodliving/posts/2016/03/flying-foxes gives these as grey-headed flying foxes. Sorry I didn’t get close-ups for confirmation..

Photo added. Is P. poliocephalus the only flying fox in SA?
