Family Strigidae - Owls [1]

Generic sequence of Strigidae is based on the molecular phylogenetic analysis of Salter et al. (2019). This analysis also reveals that Strigidae is composed of two major clades that have been treated as subfamilies: Surniinae and Striginae, respectively. Species sequence is based primarily on the NACC and SACC for genera limited to the western hemisphere and Dickinson & Remsen (2013) for the others.

Strigidae   genera: 23
Strigidae   species: 234
Strigidae   subspecies: 425

Strigidae   Breeding Range: Worldwide, IO, PO, SA, MA, AF, PAL, NA, OR, AU [2]

Margarobyas Olson & Suárez, 2008 1 NA Olso 2008 3 New genus name required for Gymnoglaux, which is a junior synonym of Gymnasio, which is referable to Megascops nudipes (AOU 54th supplement). Phylogenetic analyses show that Margarobyas lawrencii is a member of Surniinae and is not closely related to Megascops nudipes as traditionally treated. Exact placement within Surniinae unsettled due to suboptimal specimens available to Salter et al. (2019).
Taenioptynx Kaup, 1848 2 OR Kaup 1848 4 Phylogenetic analysis reveals that Glaucidium brodiei (and presumably G. sylvaticum) are not closely related to other Glaucidium species but rather form a discrete clade with Micrathene and Xenoglaux that is sister to the remaining species within Surniinae. The genus Taenioptynx Kaup, 1848 is resurrected for these two species (Salter et al. 2020).
Micrathene Coues, 1866 1 NA MA Coue 1866 5 Micrathene, Xenoglaux and Glaucidium brodiei/sylvaticum form a discrete clade that is sister to the remaining species within Surniinae (Salter et al. 2020).
Xenoglaux O'Neill & Graves, GR, 1977 1 SA Neil 1977 6 Micrathene, Xenoglaux and Glaucidium brodiei/sylvaticum form a discrete clade that is sister to the remaining species within Surniinae (Salter et al. 2020).

Jubula Bates, GL, 1929 1 AF Bate 1929 14 The taxonomic position of Jubula is unsettled. It may be basal to the entire Striginae subfamily or it is a basal taxon within the tribe Bubonini (Salter et al. 2020).
Bubo Duméril, 1805 10 OR NA AF PAL MA SA Dumé 1805 15
Ketupa Lesson, RP, 1830 12 OR AF PAL Less 1830 16 Ketupa is embedded within Bubo, which may be better treated as two or three genera (Wink 2016; Salter et al. 2020; Wink & Sauer-Gürth 2021). Ketupa is retained as a separate genus and expanded to include nine species formerly attributed to traditional Bubo to align with WGAC and Clements (2022). Note change in gender.
Scotopelia Bonaparte, 1850 3 AF Bona 1850 17 Scotopelia forms a sister clade with Ketupa; both are embedded in traditional Bubo (Wink 2016; Salter et al. 2020; Wink & Sauer-Gürth 2021). Maintained as a separate genus aligning with WGAC and Clements (2022).
Psiloscops Coues, 1899 1 NA MA Coue 1899 18
Gymnasio Bonaparte, 1854 1 NA Bona 1854 19 Forms a deeply diverged clade with Psiloscops that is sister to Megascops; resurrect monotypic genus Gymnasio (Dantas et al. 2016; Salter et al. 2020; Chesser et al. 2020; NACC 2020-B-9, 2020-C-14).
