 In the original description, Elliot stated that the holotype "belongs to the 

 Academy of Natural Sciences of Chicago, by the kindness of whose officers 

 I am enabled to bring this bird to the notice of ornithologists." The speci- 

 men was, however, entered into our register as early as March 8, 1867, and 

 seems never to have left the U.S. National Museum, although four of the 

 other five owls received at the same time from the same expedition were sent 

 to Chicago in "1866" and 1867.
