(Otus enganensis) [XC210261]
     by id from near Desa Kahyapu, Enggano, North Bengkulu, Bengkulu, Indonesia (call)

Subspecies
Otus magicus (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993) has been split into Flores Scops-Owl (Otus alfredi) following Widodo et al. (1999), Siau Scops-Owl (Otus siaoensis) following Lambert and Rasmussen (1998), Engano Scops-Owl (Otus enganensis) following Andrew (1992), Seychelles Scops-Owl (Otus insularis) and Papuan Scops-Owl (Otus beccarii) following Holt et al. (1999) and Moluccan Scops-Owl (Otus magicus).

Probably forms superspecies with Simeulue Scops-Owl (Otus umbra) and Nicobar Scops-Owl (Otus alius). Sometimes considered conspecific with Moluccan Scops-Owl (Otus magicus). Formerly treated as subspecies of Simeulue Scops-Owl (Otus umbra), Eurasian Scops-Owl (Otus scops) or Oriental Scops-Owl (Otus sunia). Seems closest to Simeulue Scops-Owl (Otus umbra), but separated specifically on basis primarily of vocal characteristics.

No subspecies.
