Forest Owlet
Very closely related is the Forest Owlet (Heteroglaux ble-witti) of the thick forests of central India, which by some is included in the last genus, and at best only differs in having a slightly more rounded wing and the opening of the nostril a little nearer the front margin of the cere. In coloration it is quite similar to the Spotted Owlet, except that the white spots are less distinct; it is a rare bird, and little is known of its habits.
