Strix brama. Temm. PL Col. 68. 



Inhabits India. This bird greatly resembles the 

 first species, but it is somewhat less : has more white 

 on the upper parts, and is dusky brown in the places 

 that are ashy-brown in that bird : again, the eyebrows 

 and collar on the neck serve also to show the distinc- 

 tion; these parts are white, with ashy-brown lunules: 

 the under parts of the plumage are covered with large 

 transverse spots, instead of longitudinal dashes : the 

 quills and tail are banded with white.
