The American (North and South America) horned owls and the Old World eagle-owls make up the genus Bubo Bubo is Latin for owl .
This genus contains ten species that are found in many parts of the world. Some of the largest living Strigiformes are in Bubo . Traditionally, only owls with ear-tufts were included in this genus, but that is no longer the case.

Taxonomy [ edit ]
Detail of an eye of an eagle-owl
The genus Bubo was introduced in 1805 by the French zoologist André Duméril for the horned owls.[2] type species is the Eurasian eagle-owl .[3] bubo is Latin for the Eurasian eagle owl and was used as the specific epithet for the species by Carl Linnaeus in 1758.[4]
A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2020 found that species in the genera Scotopelia Ketupa Bubo making the genus Bubo paraphyletic . To create monophyletic genera nine species were moved from Bubo to Ketupa .[5] [6]
Species [ edit ]
The genus contains 10 extant species:[6]
Snowy owl , Bubo scandiacus
Great horned owl , Bubo virginianus
Lesser horned owl , Bubo magellanicus
Eurasian eagle-owl , Bubo bubo
Indian eagle-owl , Bubo bengalensis
Pharaoh eagle-owl , Bubo ascalaphus
Cape eagle-owl , Bubo capensis
Arabian eagle-owl , Bubo milesi
Greyish eagle-owl , Bubo cinerascens
Spotted eagle-owl , Bubo africanus
Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo )
Sometimes included in this genus:
Verreaux's Eagle-owl , Ketupa lactea
Spot-bellied Eagle-owl , Ketupa nipalensis
Barred Eagle-owl ,Ketupa sumatrana
Fraser's Eagle-owl ,Ketupa poensis
Akun eagle-owl , Ketupa leucosticta
Philippine eagle-owl , Ketupa philippensis
Dusky eagle-owl , Ketupa coromanda
Shelley's eagle-owl , Ketupa shelleyi
Blakiston's fish owl , Ketupa blakistoni
Brown fish owl , Ketupa zeylonensis
Tawny fish owl , Ketupa flavipes
Buffy fish owl , Ketupa ketupu
Pel's fishing owl , Scotopelia peli
Rufous fishing owl , Scotopelia ussheri
Vermiculated fishing owl , Scotopelia bouvieri
Fossil record [ edit ]
Named and distinct Bubo species are:
Bubo florianae (Late Miocene[verification needed of Csákvár, Hungary, tentatively placed here)
Bubo leakeyae (Early Pleistocene of Tanzania)
Bubo binagadensis (Late Pleistocene of Binagady, Azerbaijan)
Bubo osvaldoi [7]
Bubo insularis (Pleistocene of Sardinia)
Some notable undescribed fossils of prehistoric horned owls, usually quite fragmentary remains, have also been recorded:
Bubo sp. (Late Pliocene of Senèze, France)[8]
Bubo sp. (Late Pliocene of Rębielice Królewskie, Poland; tentatively placed here)[9]
Bubo sp. (Late Pleistocene of San Josecito Cavern, Mexico)[10]
Specimen UMMP V31030, a Late Pliocene coracoid from the Rexroad Formation of Kansas (US ), cannot be conclusively assigned to either Bubo or Strix taxon similar in size to the great horned owl (B. virginianus ) or the great grey owl (S. nebulosa ).[11]
The Sinclair owl (Bubo sinclairi ) from Late Pleistocene California may have been a paleosubspecies of the great horned owl,[12] Bubo insularis of the central and eastern Mediterranean has been considered a junior synonym of a brown fish owl paleosubspecies.[13]
Several presumed Bubo fossils have turned out to be from different birds. The Late Eocene/Early Oligocene eared owls "Bubo" incertus and "Bubo" arvernensis are now placed in the fossil barn-owl genera Nocturnavis Necrobyas "Bubo" leptosteus is now recognized as primitive owl in the genus Minerva Protostrix ). "Bubo" poirreiri from the Late Oligocene or Early Miocene of Saint-Gérard-le-Puy in France, is now placed in Mioglaux
On the other hand, the supposed fossil heron "Ardea" lignitum from the Late Pliocene of Plaue -Rippersroda (Germany) was apparently an owl and close to Bubo or more probably actually belongs here. Given its age – about 2 million years ago or so – it is usually included in the Eurasian eagle-owl today.[14]
Interactions with humans [ edit ]
Because of their nocturnal habits, most owls do not directly interact with humans. However, in 2015, an eagle owl in Purmerend , Netherlands , attacked some fifty people before it was caught by a hired falconer .[15]
