Strix JtrtTnmea javanica is \ery different from Continental Nortli European 

 Sti-ix flammea Jiatmaea. It is larger, and the undersurface is white with small 

 blackish spots. In the colour of the underside it is more like the West European 

 Strix flammea kircMwffi, being almost as white below ; but it is larger, and the 

 upper surface as well as the tail is like that of Strix flammea flaminen. Tlie tail is 

 always lighter in S. f. kirchhufli. The nearest form is api)arently the African Strix 

 flammea maculata (typus ex Kartoum) ; but S. f. javanica is generally more 

 greyish above, and as a rule larger, with more powerful feet. Continental Indian 

 '• Bani-Owls " are, perhaps, not separable from S. f. javanica. The specimen I 

 recorded from Kalao, a small island south of Celebes, as Sti-ix flammea in Nov. ZooL.
