滅絕物種
該屬的一些代表性的 島嶼 亞種主要來自於 化石 或 亞化石 的遺跡:
- Athene megalopeza (fossil; Rexroad Late Pliocene of WC USA) - 有時也被定義為特異型亞種
- Athene veta (fossil; Early Pleistocene of Rebielice, Poland)
- Athene angelis (fossil; Middle - Late Pleistocene of Castiglione, Corsica)
- Athene trinacriae (Pleistocene)
- Athene cf. cunicularia (fossil; Pleistocene of Barbuda, West Indies)
- Athene cf. cunicularia (fossil; Pleistocene of Cayman Islands, West Indies)
- Athene cf. cunicularia (fossil; Pleistocene of Jamaica, West Indies)
- Athene cf. cunicularia (fossil; Pleistocene of Mona Island, West Indies)
- Athene cf. cunicularia (fossil; Pleistocene of Puerto Rico, West Indies)
- 克里特小鴞 Athene cretensis (prehistoric; Crete, Mediterranean)
克里特小鴞是一種不會飛或幾乎不會飛的生物,身高超過 50 公分(近 2 英尺)。 在克里特島有人類居住後不久,它就滅絕了。
Template:中新世晚期 (約 11 mya) 的發現於 魯道巴尼奧 (NE 匈牙利|) 的化石遺骸已暫時歸於該屬。[3]
考慮到已知的小鴞屬化石範圍以及來自歐洲的許多中新世鴟鴞科化石的錯誤分配,它可能是現有屬的基群,原產地也可能不在這裡。 所謂的 “Athene” murivora 物種是雄性 Template:羅德里格貓頭鷹 的亞化石遺骨的名稱。
- 安提瓜穴鴞 Antiguan burrowing owl, Athene cunicularia amaura - 滅絕 (c.1905)
- 瓜達洛普穴鴞 Guadeloupe burrowing owl, Athene cunicularia guadeloupensis - 滅絕 (c.1890)
