Abstract The flying fox (Pteropus giganteus) also familiar with the name of the greater Indian fruit Bat belongs to the order Chiroptera and family Pteropodidae.Current research emphasis on the DNA barcoding of P.giganteus in Azad Jammu Kashmir.Bat sequences were amplified and PCR products were sequenced and examined by bioinformatics software.

Congeneric and conspecific, nucleotide composition and Hockey Accessories - Skate Guards K2P nucleotide deviation, haplotype diversity and the number of haplotypes were estimated.The analysis showed that all of the five studied samples of P.giganteus had low G contents (G 19.8%) than C (27.

8%), A (25.1%) and T (27.3%) contents.The calculated haplotype diversity was 0.

60% and the mean intraspecific K2P distance was 0.001% having a high number of transitional substitutions.The study suggested that P.giganteus (R=0.

00) do not deviate from the All-Purpose Cleaners neutral evolution.It was determined from the conclusion that this mtDNA gene is a better marker for identification of Bat species than nuclear genes due to its distinctive characteristics and may serve as a landmark for the identification of interconnected species at the molecular level and in the determination of population genetics.
