Striped Owl (Asio clamator) - HBW 5, p. 239
French: Hibou strié
German: Schreieule
Spanish: Búho Gritón
Taxonomy: Bubo Clamator Vieillot, 1807, Cayenne.
Often placed in monotypic genus Rhinoptynx, which has been merged with Pseudoscops by some; seems, however, to be very closely related to other Asio species, this supported by recent DNA studies. Race forbesi sometimes merged with nominate. Four subspecies recognized.

- forbesi (Lowery & Dalquest, 1951) - S Mexico to Panama.
