In Otus brachyotus, occasionally but one primary is 

 emarginate; the species however differs strikingly in 

 color from 0. vulgaris, the under parts especially being 

 less variegated. Mr. Ridgway informs me that the genus 

 AsiO) JSrisson, should probably stand instead of Otiis. 

 Our species would then be called Asio otus and Asio 

 brachyotus.
